    The regular is working fine for me. But I just got mine done like 6 months ago... And I'm not sure what that brush guard is that you're referring to, but my avid light bar was like $100. They waste a lot of product when doing accessories. I'm guessing around $100-$150 though

    Edit: oh wow. Just looked up that brush guard. I bet it's be closer to $200...

    I used to spray it. It will be pretty expensive like "TuFerLife" said. You waste most of the product as it is being sprayed by the item rather than on it. I had a 18' utility trailer and sprayed the rails and frame with it. I forget how many gallon's I used but it was much more than a truck bed would have been. Trailer looked cool as shit though and I never had to worry about it being messed up.




    Best picture I have of it

    Standard worked well on my last truck's FER, this time I have Premium. Either way works well, the Premium retains more glass, but is just a coating. What ever you do, make sure they coat all sides of your bumper. That way it is basically rust proof!
