Thanks! I've been thinking about doing the same thing but I didn't know if it'd work! Saved me some time.

Anybody ever thought about primering the liner before they painted to see if that would keep it from absorbing paint?

Looks very nice..

Have a question though, what did you use to prep/clean the pad before painting it? Thinking about possibly doing something like that, but want the paint to stick well.
