I am getting a lot of good ideas .
what did you do for Prep. sanding, primer, ect. ?????
what color was your Rig when you started ????????

The truck had a cheap champaine paint job when I got it and it started chipping off in chunks. It had the light tan/brown interior so the Desert Camo fit perfect. I went over the truck with a DA sander to get the crap paint off, taped off the windows and things I didn't want overspray on, primered it and went to town. I would have done it again on my latest 85 4runner if I hadn't gotten free used Beard seats (gray).

Nope not my truck. That belongs to Curtis of Race-Dezert. Full-size vinyl cutouts to lay it down.

if you look at the truck on my screen namee it was camo, i painted it with stencils and a air brush and applied 3 coats of clear. it took me about 9 hours non stop in a heated paint boothe. i have since sold the truck because someone else wanted it worse than me.
