Just wondering if the Challenger has a non-skid surface as the Abrams Tank does. If it does, do any of you have pics or a diagram of where it is located on the vehicle you can pass on to me? Cant go on with my Challenger unless I can find out. Thanks.

Yes, it does have the non-skid surface. Sorry but I don't have anything that really shows where it is located, hopefully someone else can provide this.

tins and is mixed with the paint/or applied before the paint goes over it I'll have a check of the kit mag that army does there was an article a few issues back on this subject as fro the Drops it is applied on most othe rear flat areas were the drivers walk/stand on including the rear wheel mudguards
