Oh, and I would add that IMHO it is MUCH easier to buy the kit than try to
cut the cement board oneself. I know I could not have done nearly as
precise a job with a sabre saw and drill. Plus, my old ones were inaccurate
and poorly fabricated, and would have made really crappy patterns. The kit
is well worth the cost.

I just installed the Moss kit a couple of weeks ago. Here are a couple of
in-progress shots of what they look like finished as described. The kit
works very well.

It is a two-part refinishing process. First part is two coats of Rustoleum
Clean Metal Primer 7780830. Then you apply a very light coat of MinWax
Polyurethane Clear Satin to seal the surface and make it cleanable. Both
are spray cans and each can contains enough for a dozen cars :-) You don't
want the urethane to look shiny. The instructions are included with Moss's
kit. The primer is a nice off-white that Roger found to match the original
color.

through the archives and on John Simm's site and can't find the note. Does
anyone know the finish he used or is there someone that can provide me with
a proper finish?
