Just camoflauge it and be done with it.

The mechanic at work rhinolined the exterior of his s-10 blazer. Can't tell right away because he used the original exterior colors.

Meh, it's an S10. Just spray-bomb it black/semi gloss black, then actually paint it later if you really want.

I'll post a pic this weekend. Got half of it done, just need to wet sand & finish. Then it's time to go back to Brown Eye & get her running again. This truck is comfortable, but I miss my car.

Go to atwoods or something and buy tractor paint in any color you want, they should also have hardener for the tractor paint which will make it last for a while. better, cheapers, and easier to do than any rattle can job

Forgot to post what a spray can paint job looks like. Look in the previous posts for a before. Here's after with my crooked A$$ masking job & a ton of dust from driving down dirt roads. Smile

To be honest, it turned out much better than I thought it would.

looks alot better

Thanks. Total investment was right around $30 with a can of each color left over for touch ups. Right before I bought the paint, I had the hankering to buy a bunch of aircraft stripper & some actual gun primer/thinner. Glad I didn't waste the money on an old work truck now.

It actually does look pretty good. Can't really tell it was a rattle can job.

You wanna swap in a 4.3L in that truck? I got the engine and trans to do so...

by The Dude Fri Oct 22, 2010 9:13 am

Someday I might, but the 2.hate is still running decent. Since it's just a work truck, I might as well get my use out of it.
