I use this stuff all the time. Try to post pics tonight...its great. Spray that I use comes out grey in color and is almost like spray paint except textured. It can be easily removed with high pressure water and soap. Use it where ever you'd use blue tape.

I would really like to know where someone can get this. Any local auto store chains have it? Seems like an awesome idea for a trip in the Evo!
