Also, get rid of that front "bumper" it would look way better without all that mess haha.
Lookin better. just buy some cheap masking tape at the dollar store and spend a hour taping off and then spray it.

yeah, i know... now that i've given her a bit of a tune up, i'm almost ready to race you, i think..
if i cared enough/find myself bored enough, i'll sand it smooth, polish it shiny, and throw a clear coat on top, but, i doubt ill do most of that.. salt is bad, we just have gravel here but that doesn't stop from rusing everywhere.
OH YEAH.
I've been pretty broke lately, I'm surprised I could afford that second can of spray.
As for the front bumper.. What front bumper? There's no bumper.. If I can't find one at pick'n'pull soon I'll fab up something cheep when I do the flatbed.. Remember, this thing is only for getting me around until I swap a 7M-GTE into my Supra and the 5M-GE from my supra into my 4Runner..
i rattle canned my truck durring summer. it worked great! but i live in northern utah and the salt thay use to melt ice and snow has really taken its toll on my clear-coat-free paint job.. i'm doing it again but this time its getting a clear coat to fight off those nasty salt demons
OH YEAH.
Just use some paint thinner and get it off the handle and lock. it will wipe right off.

I'd say minimum 3 cans for the cab, 2 for the deck, but probably more.
Spray slowly and evenly and do it in passes, make sure to stop spraying at the end of each pass. You want to pull away so that when you stop to go back in the other direction there's no build up. Not sure if I'm making any sense, but hey.
I'd suggest getting a hand grip thing to spray it with.
