Re: fleck stone paint

I normally keep my opinions to myself, as everyone has different taste.
But I have to chime in and say at best, flex stone paint is a fad from the '80s and really should be left in the '80s.
Every time I saw an interior with the flex stone, it generally was chipped and was not very durable.
And at worst, it looks bad.

With all that said, it is your car, do what makes you happy. I sincerely mean that.

I used it like 15 years ago in my 84 and had great luck with it.

I was thinking the same thing. Very dated looking and was not very cool even back then IMO.
