You thinking kind of the same thing - or less spray?

Well this one has been tossed around a bit also.... what I have decided on is to spray the firewall all the way up under the metal dash, the front pillars, the middle pillars and the back wall all the way up and around the head liner trim.

I'm thinking, color match (I guess I'll stick with a red) the doors and maybe spray line the door inserts w/line-x (black).

Maybe charcoal gray headliner and carpet.... do something black and red or charcoal and red with the seats?

Thinking the Government stimulus plan is working is like thinking that taking water form the deep end of a pool and dumping it in the shallow end will raise the water level of the pool.

OK... so she is off to have the interior spray lined. I will have her back tomorrow afternoon. At least this gives me a chance to get my driveway cleaned up! And the garage... can't seem to find anything anymore!

Damn - I never heard of that either. I guess it wouldn't be too hard though. Just throw the spray gun and the barrels of material on a trailer.

yup thats what they did, brought plastic and tape with them covered everything, even did it in the garage and covered it up to, made a little mini paint booth, and cleaned everything up and left. it works out better for them because most of the time the gas and what not is cheeper then renting a building to do it all in. this guy worked out of his house.

Truck back from the local bedliner establishment....







Looks too nice to cover up! Now the trick will be keeping it clean?

inverst in a set of wheel dollies so you can slide that thing from side to side and still use that door to the house. I've got 6 of those wheel dollies and use them for everything!
