well i spray my vehicles outside..in the open.which is why they wont EVER be as good as some of these other guys' vehicles

of course we do have a shop with an exhaust fan??.guess we could clean it out and i could paint peoples vehicles..LMAO

 

You can make a spray booth out of PVC and plastic sheeting with a box fan or two with home AC filters on them. Just build it panels so you can take it apart when not using it.

Use a respirator.

 

PPG original toyota color (not this trucks original color), $20 HVLP gun, in the back yard since I don't have a garage to work in.

 

is there supposed to be a pic there buddy? lol

i'm about to throw another coat on my '86 before i sell it

i'll post up the pics here so keep an eye out guys!

 

I saw this thread and thought i put pics in but i didn't...anyway here is a before and after, painted in my garage, description is in a previous post in this thread

 

my father and i painted my truck in the driveway, with tree cover. we used a urethane primer, toyota tacoma "speedway blue" (matalic pearl blue) and clear coat. it turned out really nice, with only a few small drips and insects



heres how it looked back in the summer.



i have to touch up a few tiny spots after this winter, rust is begining to come through. salt

 

i spray painted my truck didnt want to spend money on paint job justincase i didnt like it

ill get pick up asap have to resize

 

Nice lookin ride man.

 

my buddys truck using rustoleum gloss black 3 quarts did two coats

 

hey OR runner what kind of blue paint is that and how did you apply it?

 

Its a house of kolors paint, paint code is for 84-88 toyota true blue..i can get the code if you would like it...applied using a gravity feed gun and 80 gal compressor, It also a single stage so after your body work and primer, you spray...its got the clear coat that is mixed in

 

this is mine

 

yea i'm gonna stick with the rattle can, i'm gonna throw another coat on it though before i sell it, then give it a nice buff to make it shine, but not a hard buff, just a light buff, don't wanna be buffing through the paint LOL

hell i might just spray it and call it good LOL

 

So I'm seeing some really nice stuff here what are you guys doing about the door jams and engine bay and all those other hard to reach/see places?

 

Nice work Camo!! Are you reading my thoughts or what dude?? I just saw this thread after ive been sanding my truck for 3 days. im doing exactly the same paint scheme except i found a GALLON of olive drab paint for 20!! it was a off color mix they couldnt sell to orginal customer just been sitting on the shelf for a year. SCORE FOR ME!! pics soon to come. How do u like the bedliner on the bottom?? I used bedliner on the grill bumper skid plate and engine bay so far so good! i will keep u posted
