The 3 color paint is what really puts the "meth" in "meth-mobile", and I would really like to change that. 2X totaled and rebuilt on a budget, I'm well aware that this isn't going to be showroom ready when I'm done. That said, I don't want it to just peel off in two years.
The "international harvester red" from Rustoleum spray paint matched very well so I think I'm going to get a gallon jug of that and use an air gun that I already have. I'm thinking that I want to use a sander of ??? grit to rough the surface, remove that flaking clear coat, and remove whatever residue is left of that trim adhesive after scrapping that off. I think if I sand it enough to smooth everything but don't dig clear through the paint, I should be able to just paint right on top of it without primer. From what I have seen others do, I also think that the paint should look good by itself, aka not need clear coat either. For right now I will just be removing the front clip, painting it and putting it back on. The bed and cab are in decent shape so I will leave them for the foreseeable future.
I have done some body work hear and there but this will be my biggest project so far. Just figured I would check in with the experts to see if you saw any glaring issues in my "budget friendly" plans.
