Raptor Bed lining Tintable & Auto Body paint
Hello I have some questions regarding auto body paint and Raptor bed lining. I've followed a few threads but struggled finding details about mixing the tint or locations to purchase auto body paint.
I'd like to spray the interior of a K5 Blazer with Raptor bed lining. However the natural color is black and I feel like that would be too hot inside the truck. I'd like to use the tintable version of this product and tint it a basic gray color. Nothing fancy, i'm just tinting to keep the heat down while the top is off. My questions are: 1. Where can I purchase basic Gray paint in order to accomplish this? 1b. A local place would be optimal. I live in zip code 30317 2. What type of paint would be best? 3. Has anyone used the tintable Raptor product and do you have any advice? Just a quick scan of TCPGlobal.com and they have these different types of paint: AE Acrylic Enamel AU Acrylic Urethane AL Acrylic Lacqure UB Urethane Basecoat Primers & Clears There are a ton of options. . . I just want Gray. |

Re: Raptor Bed lining Tintable & Auto Body paint
Adding to what we discussed via PM, when I used it, I used the basic black stuff. I have no experience with the tintable variety.
I did just read on here recently though that the tintable type uses paint without binder. The guy doing the thread said he talked to Raptor tech support and they said it was imperative that the proper non-binder paint was used or the product would gell and be useless to apply. When you decide what type of paint you need, here is a place I found in Atlanta that seems to offer a good variety of supplies. http://www.fapsco.com/

Re: Raptor Bed lining Tintable & Auto Body paint
To add, looking through their website, they are a U-Pol distributor. You might be able to find everything you need soup to nuts right there in one local place.
