Finally, I have some COLOR! - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

yfs200p · 04-15-2013, 12:56 PM

Had an exciting weekend, we were finally ready to shoot some color on my K10 SWB project. Just like everything else, this is taking a lot longer than anticipated. I am at 2.5 years right now. Anyway, we got the interior painted, including the steering column and 6x9 speaker panels. I think it came out awesome, what does everyone else think?

Check out my build for more detailed pics and progress.

Heres what I used:

1. Kustom shop DTM Epoxy primer on bare metal
2. SlickSand polyester filler primer over any body filler
3. Kustom shop 2K High Build Primer/Surfacer
4. PPG Deltron - GM Meduim Green/Polo Green. Code- WA9539 (early-mid 2000's Gm truck color)
5. Kemperle (shop line) urethane clear.

Polyester primer

2K Primer surfacer

Color & Clear!!

That metallic green is gonna pop in the sun. very nice man.

Checked out your build, you still doing the 2 tone? Think that will look killer.

Looks great! Oh...the smell of fresh paint! It's a bunch of work isn't it!

NastyNate32 · 04-24-2013, 03:43 PM

Awesome job! I'm jealous...Were you a painting virgin prior to this? Just curious, I'm planning on painting mine myself and can't work up the courage to start with metallic.

Looks like it's getting ready to blossom

Beautiful shade of green. I love it and if I wasn't going back to the original Orange I would go this shade of green.

Ive had a professional body guy helping me out, so thats the only reason i went with metallic. I was going to go for it all on my own, and would have gone with a flat color if i did. Now that ive had his help, I dont know how i would have done it alone. However, i feel pretty confident about the doing the next truck myself!
