Second painting of the 69
 

Well, we re-painted the 69 today. After a week of wet sanding, the hood fenders and cowl got painted. Much better results. There is still some orange peel but the paint has gloss and depth. We will re-paint the cab tomorrow weather permiting!


Here are a few pics!

Looks great! Is that Medium Olive? If so, where can I get some of that/ codes etc.?

Thanks,

Chevy 504 light olive green. Had some pearl added to it. The pics dont do it justice. Looks different in changing light. Were not very good at painting so it orange peeled on us. But it is what it is.

Heading up to paint the cab this morning. Will post pics when we get home. Hoping for a good day and no probs. Its 69 and low humidity right now. Better conditions than yesterday.

cool color.. kinda looks like its spraying on a bit "DRY" ?? could just be the angle of the pics..... sounds like MUCH MUCH better conditions to be painting in...

Where did you get your paint mixed up?

Did you just go in and tell them you needed "Chevy 504 light olive green" and they had the formula and everything ready to go?

My truck was originally that color but the PO repainted it an ugly dark green and I'd love to repaint it to the original color.

Thanks for the help!
