I use E Z slide too... It is worth about 1 mph at a 100 mph from my testing. I blueprinted the pad on my 2002 and use E Z slide on it too. It will only last 1 season if your lucky. It never really dries. If you rub your fingers on it, it will come off on your fingers. Spray it on a little heavy, and let dry for a 24 hours. Then sand it. It will be way smoother than primer to the touch. I like it a little rough. 220-320 grit. Depending. If it is to smooth I think it catches more water. The coarser finish let's a little more air bubbles around the case. kinda like a polished prop grabs the water more than a satin prop. Just my theory....
