    I prefer the 3 mil bags over the 1.5 mil. The 1.5 mil bags always tear when I tell my Rocket Scientist/Aeronautical Enginer to take out the freakin trash.

    Just to clear up the "A" coat and "E" coat argument, E coat with the proper phosphate can withstand 1000hrs or more of continuous salt spray and also withstand 3-5000hrs of WOM testing even after a 10day 100% humidity chamber.

    But no car supplier is gonna pay the price it costs to do so


    And yes blackbolt9 you are completely wrong- 25.4 microns = 1 mil, mils = millimeters x 39.37 just FYI

    Most coatings are measured in mils or microns

    for you. I've been a machinist and shop owner for over 27 years and on this you are flat out wrong. You are understanding the term mil as the slang term for millimeter in your shop environment when the discussion is about the proper full usage in a totally different arena.
    In this case, you fail.
