truck repaint
well im fixin to jump in the deep end. here it goes, my fenders have some small rust holes in them so i was gonna fix them up right? well i was takin a stroll through the junkyard (dont ask) and walked up on a 66 c10 with no bed, fenders were spotless and rustless, so i asked what he wanted for them and i got them for $10, thats right, $10 a piece. well i work in a shop helping fix trucks and trailers and cleaning up and stuff like that with my cousin. he said i could use what ever i wanted as long as i dident F*** anything up, including his paint guns. im going to paint my truck, and ive never painted with anything but krylon. so i hope i dont screw it up, but if i do i cant blame anybody but myself. just thought id let ya know what my plans were. ill do it next week, when i do ill post some pics and show ya how i did. o and btw, i was hoping for black and red but he gave me some red and white he had for free so i guess ill have red and white.

Re: truck repaint
remember this brother, take the time to prep everything 1-2 even 3 times make sure your area is clear and free of dust of any type, keep the end of the spray gun 6-8 inches away from the object your painting ,and keep a nice steady motion don't ever stop to spay a spot you might of missed just keep the flow! its hard to put into words.
