So I have been painting a lot of my trucks in different ways. The newest is to bed-liner paint it. First I started out Just with a generic brand of line-x or rhino liner, it cost about $12. a can and it is plenty. So i coat the inside and out in an even coat. So then I taped off the lines and the racing stripes for a cool metallic silver 2 tone look. Then i finished it with a spray on clear coat so that the silver and the black is glossy. It look awesome in real life in the sun the black has a flake tint to it and the metallic silver really stands out. I am very happy with the choice i have made. Since I did the inside and out it bonded to itself making the truck nearly indestructible.

I like those tires and wheels, what are they?





I have been using bedliner for a while on my short course bodies. I use a rattle can pearl, or something with metal flake in it. I scrub the body inside, then dry. I tape off the windows and use a very very light mist of flake then black bedliner. The body comes out with a hint of the flake color and black. It holds up well.

This one is a little dusty, but you can get the idea.
