cowboy rich Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 When I was trying to touch up the black primer I was at the end of the rattle can and it started spitting and messed up my smooth finish. That's what I get for trying to get every last drop of paint out of the can. So now I'm stripping it down and getting a new can of paint this is a one step forward and two back. oh no! I hate when that happens. Yet did it myself a few days ago trying to get one more coat to get some more depth with a metalic oh there's enough here, wrong! Ok so I can wet sand that out I said, nope. It's looking really nice Dan to bad about the primer. Rich Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mopar - D Posted May 15, 2016 Author Share Posted May 15, 2016 Was able to clean up the dump body and respray it. Also sprayed the sub frame yellow and chromed the bumper. I also have the host in place for the dump. Worked on cleaning up panel lines on the cab too and some more primer on it I think I'm close with the clean up on the cab Going to work on getting the glass cut and fit before I paint Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
