Re: Attempting the "$50 paint job"

Re: Attempting the "$50 paint job"
After more research, there's a special roller you need for the Bed Armor.....Guess I need to try to sand it down and get the full kit with the roller.

Re: Attempting the "$50 paint job"

Re: Attempting the "$50 paint job"
I bought a Herculiner kit today, $98 with $25 rebate....until they found out the rebate was expired and refunded me $25 on the spot
Gonna try to knock the old stuff down with a paint wheel later today. |

That turned out very nice. I plan on painting my Jeep Wagoneer the same way.
