Re: Two tone unveiled!!!!
Truck looks sweet man!! Just curious as to what brand of paint you used and how much it took. Its been 10 years since I painted anything and auto paint much like everything else has gone up in price. Previously I used strictly PPG products but some of this off brand urethane paint looks tempting.

Re: Two tone unveiled!!!!
GM absolutely should have done 'Burbs (and Blazers/Jimmys) this way from the factory. Two tones like that totally changes the look of them! I love it!!!

Re: Two tone unveiled!!!!
Longhorn, I'll put the request in for the pics! I just hope we get some better weather soon.
67_C30, I agree. AvgJoe, I used urethane enamel from NAPA. I should have stuck with the acrylic enamel. It was roughly the same price. From the top of my head: Etching primer: 125 High build primer w/thinner: 75 (might have been less) 1 gal White w/reducer and hardner: 200 1 gal Black w/reducer and hardner: 180 (may have been more, I just remember it was cheaper than white) 1 gal cleaner degreaser: 50 (this might have been more) plus tax .. call it 700 just for paint (you still have sand paper, scotchbrite pads, and other stuff you will need). Way more than I intended to spend. I started off just wanting to paint the roof with tractor supply paint! I just tell myself it was at least a 700 or 800 dollar improvement.
