RE: Russian tank treads

Well I'm thinking of black!  Has anybody any experience with the 3M brand of 
sprayable undercoating?  Undercoating seems pretty tough and flexible.  Attributes 
I'm looking for in coating my tracks.  I've tried another brand of rubberized 
undercoating on some test pieces but it turned out to be asphalt based and has not 
dried all the way.  From what I can find out, the 3M product dries hard.  Come to 
think of it.  A textured primer coat of undercoating may cover plywood well and when 
painted over may offer that rough cast metal look that all quality AFV's have, like 
the T34!
