Funny painting experience

Long time follower, not much of a poster, but I thought yall would get a laugh out of this. After over 100hrs of bodywork on my dually bed I had it perfect (in primer), needed to haul off trash a couple weeks ago, blew the inside right dual & completely took out the right fiberglass fender & managed to dent the heck out the entire right bedside rendering all of my bodywork useless.

So I pulled the bed off to put a flatbed on & decided to go ahead & paint the cab while the bed was off. So I enlisted my wife's help to scuff everything up & shoot it, and she was 100% ready to help! Because she was really into the project for once I let her pick out the paint color, and this is where I went wrong. The color she picked out is a very ugly shade of green, closely resembling a '80s plumber truck color!



She loves the color so I'm going to leave it and learn to love it, but guys be darn careful when you ask for help! Lol. (And yes I installed new cab light lenses after painting, these were cracked so I just painted over them)
