roof painted
After debating on painting my roof white for awhile, I finaly did it.
I like how it came out. Old mother nature had "dulled" the paint, so I used some semi gloss . What do you guys think ? I even added some "Patina"

Re: roof painted
I like it. If I were ever to paint my roof that's the layout I would use, just the top. It should make the cab noticeably cooler in the summer.

Re: roof painted
Reminds me of another truck that used to roam SJ with just the very top white ....
Looks really good Sal. You know me ... "Got Patina?"

Re: roof painted
Thanks to all. I'm going to give it one more coat and distress it a bit more.
Doobiebro, I think what ever you do to your truck will look good!
