Finally got around to refurbishing my aging pop top like so many before me... Thanks to all of you who have posted on either this thread, or the others, on how to effectively finish this project.
I spoke to the folks at a "local" LineX shop and they were definitely not interested in dealing with removing and re-installing any of the trim, Thule cross bars and penthouse through bolts. Thus the project reverted to myself.
I went with applying the tintable Raptor with rollers instead of spraying (due to the unavailability of a compressor). Overall, I was very pleased with the results. Using the rollers was definitely a little more persnickety and time consuming. Care must be taken to utilize constant uniform pressure and can get a little tricky when going over the creases and curves in the top.
I ended up giving it two coats (as recommended by Raptor when rolling) and went through approximately 2 1/3 bottles of the liner. The Raptor rollers I purchased would start to unravel rather quickly and I went through 4 of them. Overall, I think spraying is the preferred method, but the lack of a compressor certainly shouldn't prevent anyone from completing this project.
I also got the opportunity to install my new stainless "T-Bolts" from Gooseberry's most recent batch
