Me & my Dad painted this in the shop behind his house about 10 years ago.
It's held up pretty well.

It'll get a refresh before too long.

This is mine done last fall using TCP Global restoration 2 stage paint. Gone in my garage I need to redo the hood, but very happy with how it turned out.

You're welcome man. You've done a great job with it. I hope mine will look that good one day. How much did you lower it from original stock?

4.5/6 2.5" drop spindles, 2" drop springs in front and I used Porter built rear tubular trailing arms with a 3" drop built in and 3" drop springs.

mavdog32 · 02-04-2013, 11:52 AM

Painted the Jeep in my garage with a Husky gun, didnt turn out too bad but i did have a couple tiny bubbles pop up in the clear.

Also repainted the motorcycle after I went down, the paintbrush and stencil work needs some help but the base clear work came out awesome.

Very slick!!

Few shots of a friend's Jeep that I bodyworked and painted. PPG base/clear with One Choice matting agent added. Everybody said we were crazy for getting it straight and detailing the seams and body lines, and then spraying satin clear over it!

MP&C · 02-04-2013, 11:32 PM

That satin looks good on there.

Thanks! Was sweating bullets while spraying it, you don't get the luxury of wetsanding and buffing any defects!
