With the inside of the cab and underside of panels complete, the cab, doors, bed and hood were painted. This was a long day of prepping and painting, especially since it was 90+ degrees with midwest humidity!

The paint went down very well and the clear smoothed out with minimal orange peel. If it wasn't for the dust in the paint, I wouldn't have to do any cut and buff. I guess that it was I get for painting in my garage, even though I swept, washed the garage down, put up plastic tarps, filtered the air coming in and going out,....oh well.
