gbtr6 Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 (edited) Finally finished this one. First pickup I've done. Fought me a bit. Had trouble with a clear coat. I use Krylon gloss lacquer and it crazed some for some reason. I've used it before and it worked great, and it dries hard and fast so you can sand and polish it. Pretty happy with it and I have another so I may do a custom. Cut some little pieces of basswood for lumber. Gotta haul something.

iamsuperdan Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 Turned out nice! The wood floor is a great addition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
espo Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 I like the nice clean stock theme of your build. I agree with Dan on the wood bed floor as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbtr6 Posted October 30, 2020 Author Share Posted October 30, 2020 Thanks guys. Wish it was shinier, but it's an old pickup. Perry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never clear coat them, often semi gloss or Dullcote! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
