I am busy with a little project for my bike and I have the idea of rubberising the toolbox I am busy building. The rubberising in the back of my bakkie will be absolutely perfect. Does anyone know, can this be applied by oneself? How? Where do I get it?
Or is it better to rather take what I want rubberised to the professionals?

I've tried to do it myself. Don't even bother.
Take it to somebody who does it professionally.
They spray the 2 compounds with a machine at the right mixture. It dries very quickly. So if your mixture is not 100% correct, it dries too quick or is just a sticky mess.

I agree with Danie, don't even try it yourself. The machine that they use to do it heats the 2 compounds and mixes at the right ratio - you cannot do that at home...

Well this seems unanimous.
Can anyone recommend guys that do this? Centurion, Kyalami, Fourways, Midrand area?
