Re: 1981 Chevrolet C50 Pick-up Conversion
Not sure what direction I am going for paint. I used Mar-Hyde self etching primer on these panels as I had them all shined up and wanted to seal the bare metal.
To be quite honest this is a budget build for me and I will likely end up doing a Rustoleum (Tremclad in Canada) paint job.
I have done this in the past on a couple other trucks with success. I like to keep costs down as this is just kind of a hobby for me, and I like to be able to say I did the majority of the work.
I am posting a photo of last years build. Medium blue Tremclad, wet sanded and buffed. I thought it turned out respectable. When I told people around my town it was Tremclad they where surprised.
