Thumbs up Not Too Windy To Paint......lol.....

Okay, i couldnt wait any longer and had to practice laying some Summit Racing paint. I set up my pop up canopy and tied some blanket walls to it and primed and painted my tailgate. This is my first attempt at automotive painting. Putting the primer down was easy enough. Man, the imperfections in the sanding really show through after primer is applied. It's not perfect but not bad for a first attempt. It's not a show truck, just my daily driver. I figure I'll paint the truck in sections to get more practice as i go along. I only painted the outside and sides.The back of the tailgate will be Herculined this week.








The weather forecast this week looks great for some auto work. Hope everyone else is able to get out and work on their projects too.
