If you go back a couple of years in the archives you will see tons of
discussion regarding Aervoe vs Gillespie. What I got out of all of it was
that Aervoe was best used for dust control on gravel drives as has been
suggested.
Paint is cheap compared to the labor you expend paint any type of vehicle.
If Aervoe was so concerned about their paint, they would have become
involved in the past discussions. It went on for weeks.
