Has anyone out there ever used undercoat to texture there cars paint job, if so what kind did you use?

I've seen it done before but I'm not sure how to go about doing it?

it's ugly, heavy and stays soft

you'd be better off just using a good automootive grade sealing primer, you can even get ti tinted if you like
