Re: 1963 C10 SWB Big Window Build

Sure thing. I used a Hvlp gravity feed 1.5 gun. paint is a PCL 2k epoxy sealer 1 gal grey and 1 qt white. tinted with omni toners yellow, blue, green. mix ratio 3 part 2:1:1 had enough for one tack coat and 2 med/hvy coats

Very inspiring, you break down barriers, I'd be stoked to get this quality in a subdivision garage yet. That's what I love about this site, amazing what can be done on a budget. Can't wait for the bed.
