I wandered into my local Line-X shop today for a quote on having my cladding and hood insert done in a nice charcoal black. I spoke with the shop owner who looked the cladding over carefully and then told me that he'd love to do the project but that the hood insert was the only thing he could maybe spray. He stated that "it just wont stick good" and that he was certain it would just peel off. I told him there were a few other VX owners that have had their cladding done and so he asked me to find out from you guys if there was any special process used by your Line-X guy to make things stick.
