quick and easy
I purchased the 5 gal kit for a specific project and hoped it would work and be enough to do all I needed. I have oxided several hundreds of machine brackets and have been extremely satisfied. I would recommend this to anybody that is looking for a quick easy way to make a profesional finish.
