Time to spray some colour on the truck finally. Getting closer to the end of the painting, but with the biggest portion still to do - the tub & doors.
3 coats of base laid out pretty decently, I was happy with this
The clear on the other hand....... ugh..... My fault, sprayed the first coat on too light. I sprayed 3 coats in total, but between the first coat being a bit textured & a significant weather change while I was spraying changing the humidity a ton (which I think was a factor - was dry when I started spraying, probably 65F, sometime after I started it poured rain and the humidity went way up). Oh well, first time ever painting a car/truck, so live and learn. Next time will be much better.
