I used the FRP for my inside ceiling and lined the inside of my hatch with the stuff. First time I every used it and was impressed. Wanted to use it
as an outside side skin, but my daughter likes the look of aluminum.

After working with aluminum, seems the stuff scratches just by looking at it, wished I would have more seriously considered FRP, painted to match the tow vehicle. May have used roofing rubber for the top.

Larryl,

Yea the only really big problem I see with the stuff is that it only comes in 4x8 sheets. You can't do a 5ft tear with it. Other than that I like it. It don't dent, scratch, etc. If you take your time you can paint it yourself with plastic paint and cover that with enamel and it looks great. I used it on the inside for the ceiling and in the back of the kitchen. You can't put it close to heat as it will turn colors but you can't put wood close to heat either.
