Haha- no doubt- and charged out the wazoo! I was thinking today as I was grinding my welds that it would take a LOT of money for me to do this to someone else's truck... Thanks for the positive comments

Congrats on the success, what brand of paint are you using? Do you have any painting advice? I'm in the middle of rebuilding my 99 silverado after I rolled it and all that's left is paint.

Liking the build though it looks great keep up the good work

I am using Hot Rod Flatz from TCPGlobal. It is a single stage urethane. I have read where guys have a hard time getting this gun to lay clear. I did very little for gun set-up other than tweak the pattern and volume a little; it does seem to like a little more inlet pressure than other HVLP guns- around 50 psi. Also, try thinning if your paint is thick- my poly primer was spraying a little dry due to the viscosity (a bigger tip would likely fix this), but the color lays out like a dream. Good luck with your rebuild...
