If this is the stuff you use a paintbrush to apply with, then it is a really good product. I used it on my 8 and it was easy, and came out good, hard coating like a rubber feel to it, similar to the factory brake kits.

Thats pretty funny stuff, considering the paint you're applying will have warnings about causing birth defects and other things.

really hard to use if you plan on stenciling anything underneath...it's very high quality and all don't get me wrong...it's so "rubbery" that when you paint over your stencil it's not very easy to remove it after it has dried...

i used VHT silver as an undercoat and then applied the stencil after it dried...then i went over the entire caliper with black G2 and when i went to remove the stencil..it took off some parts that didn't need to come off...so i had to touch things up a little...

just an FYI..

So on a scale from 1-10 how hard was it to use stencil with this paint? I am going to do it this weekend and dont want to waste my time with stencils if not worth it.

what do you mean by the sticker? You mean just let the stencil sit on top?

I clicked on your Paypal image, and received a DNS error. Can I just go to your website and get the same price?
