Robert - Have you found the Meyer Rod application easier/better than spraying
or bushing? Someone in another group suggested a foam brush. I tried that and
the result was tiny bubbles ("foaming") that dried into the coating. I called
the
Hydrocote folks and they said NEVER use a foam brush. (I'm relating that here
for readers who might be contemplating that.)

Yes.  The Mayer rod is the preferred application technique.  Foam is a  
major problem with brushing, rolling and screening.  The Mayer rod  
generates no foam and puts down a completely uniform and reproducible  
film thickness when used correctly.  It is the technique that chemists  
use for quality control and testing of coatings.
