Re: #minijimmygmc Wifey's 1990 K5 Jimmy rebuild

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.
