Re: Project Platinum C10
Looks great! I may have to attempt this myself. Just makes me nervous.

Re: Project Platinum C10
It's a lot of work but worth it. I've read and watched some YouTube videos on ways to remove the anodized coating. I didn't try any of them but they seem a little easier than sanding it off.

Re: Project Platinum C10
I really like the gray on gray. It fits the project name. Cab trim turned out very nice. Are you painting the botwie or the yellow?? Either way, looks really good!

![]() Thanks Korwin and you're right, these pictures don't do it justice. Once I get the truck back I'll be able to position the truck with better lighting where I can get much better pictures!

Re: Project Platinum C10
I'm going to have it done, it's at a shop in Houston now. Going to have the motor pulled and dressed up, the firewall shaved and painted with vintage ac installed, digital dash installed and truck painted!

Re: Project Platinum C10
What color are you planning on painting it? Did you bag it yourself?

Re: Project Platinum C10
Clayton, I refreshed my dash gauge/lights ect, $4 job to keep you busy? Got some great advice on this forum! It has a kind of cool halo effect with the white paint, and the dash lights are really bright now.

Re: Project Platinum C10
That looks really cool! Especially with your dash being painted white! I may have to do something like that.

Re: Project Platinum C10
You could use a silver for the face that would match yours, but paint the back side white for the light reflection. Thought it would be a good project while your truck was still in paint jail.

Re: Project Platinum C10
No I didn't bag it myself but i redid something's after I got it back. And I'm going to two tone it, galaxy gray on top and bottom with a Brandywine red in the middle.

Re: Project Platinum C10
Here is an update. I went by the shop and they had the trim put on which I found weird because they hadn't wet sanded it yet. They said they will wet sand and buff it tomorrow. They are working on it tomorrow so I could pick it up tomorrow, that's if it's not raining. I also got lots of parts ready to put on it.
