lillakev Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 Excellent work, brings back a lot of memories. I grew up watching my dad drive a 7-car hauler. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rhino1100 Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 Curious JT what did you use for orange paint. I am working on doing a orange and black 359. Looking close to the HD orange color. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kilrathy10 Posted January 28, 2014 Author Share Posted January 28, 2014 Hey, Gregg....I used Krylon's Chrysler Hemi Orange engine paint over flat black.....Excellent coverage.....You can find it at Auto Zone or Home Depot, even..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhino1100 Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 Great. I just so happen to have a can of that color I decanted. Thanks for info. If I can get half the paint job you got that beautiful truck I'll be happy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kilrathy10 Posted January 28, 2014 Author Share Posted January 28, 2014 I get great results from that paint shot from the can....I think the flat black for primer is what brings it out.....I don't think you can miss with this paint....Good luck, Buddy....

Rhino1100 Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Cool deal. JT did you use Krylon branded flat black as your primer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kilrathy10 Posted January 29, 2014 Author Share Posted January 29, 2014 No....That cheap Walmart paint....It's an Excellent primer as it's super flat...And cheap....At .98 cents a can, you can't beat it.....Also Home Depot sells a flat black that is a perfect match for Testors 1411 Flat black.....Also less than a dollar a can.....It's too cheap to ruin plastic.....

Rhino1100 Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Thanks again JT. Man I am sure glad someone else thinks like me on the cheap primer and flat black. I've been using both of them and had great results. As I've found if you prep right in the first place the cheap stuff works pretty darn good as a primer. I doesn't hide the details either. Super thanks again JT for the info. Man I learn something on this forum each and every time I visit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
