Re: painted my truck last weekend

looks sharp,, did you do it yourself, looks too good to be a "driveway" paint job

Looks great!...and yeah, we need more details on color and paint process. I've come up with some pretty clean jobs in the garage just by good preparation.

Re: painted my truck last weekend

now that im at work and have some free time, i can answer some questions.

thanks for all the compliments! i appreciate it!

hhahaha, no i did not paint it in my driveway. my dad runs the shop part of this body shop down the street from my house. so i use the spraybooth on nights and weekends when i do work for myself or other people.

the color isnt ppg copperhead. its actually a one-off color from rm finishes. i talked with our rep about making a color like this nissan orange that i liked. but we came up with a similar color but brighter and much more yellow and gold pearl. so they sponsered me and made me the color. we call it "orgasm orange" haha.

yeah, like the anti-freeze bottle substituted for a gas tank?? im a little tight with money until i sell my bike thats in the last pic. so i cant afford a new blazer gas tank at the moment. i used that bottle cause the truck isnt going anywhere far for a while.

Do you have that bike on eBay? I was looking for bikes on eBay last night and I could have sworn I seen that one on there.

Re: painted my truck last weekend

haha wow! i remember when i posted that. that was a long time ago.

the only real difference between those two colors is that the new color has different pearls in it and its brighter, oh yeah and it was FREE! hahah. ya know it just grabs your attention more, like getting punched in the face. haha no not bad. thanks!
