Sprayed this yesterday. Doing the doors/grille/cowl after i’m done this Dodge 3500 roof. Hood + fenders tomorrow. Came out pretty clean, few nibs on the top of the dash and the lower section of the rocker is speckly from climbing in and out of the cab, otherwise turned out really nice. Original code LT

Looks amazing. Looks like the hood and fenders took a bit of work to fit the gaps :clappy
Looking good Dill :cheers
Looks great. I love that colour, I am sure the truck will look awesome when it is done!
What paint did you use?
Looks great homie! I like how you do them all in one shot like that.
Looks great. :clappy
Looks good dill. :clappy
Lookin good. :clappy
Thanks everyone!
@Ben, I sprayed it in EHP, I don’t like the color itself but it suits the truck very nicely!
@Ryan I like getting it all out of the way but on on the downside the bottoms of the jambs are speckly from climbing in and out. Luckily a solid color like this should buff up no problem. I did the doors and cowl today and they came out even nicer! So if I nail the fenders and hood tomorrow it’ll be a home run!Here’s some pics of the roof I did earlier today, pain in the ass when you’re only 5ft5

Looks good…PBJ?
Are you using the 700/750 clears?

Are you using the 700/750 clears?[/quote]
Code PBS (now that i think of it, it might also be PBJ, I remember it having like 4 different codes on the cpu)
I sometimes use the 750 for completes but I used DC4010 on this one because I figured the cab was small enough to get away with it. I use that most of the time. It’s a nice clear IMO. The 700/750’s dry painfully slow without a bake cycle even with the accelerator. not to mention the 750 is suppose to be left to dry overnight. Screw that. Overall I didn’t like those clears appearance unless you reduce them 10%. If you spray them per the tech sheet they look thick and nasty.
outstanding
They turned out great :clappy I had a 71′ and it was that color also from factory the truck sits in primer now
i love how the underside of the roof panel and the rest of the interior looks as good as the outside. :cheers :cheers

Which clear did you use on the ’69?
I found the same thing with the 700/750. Had to reduce it 5-10% and it was slow. Even after baking you needed parts to dry overnight before handling them much/installing. It was too slow for me and I had issues with solvent pop and I seemed to like to run it.:blush: Otherwise, I could get it to lay down like glass…:lol1
