Tired of the RATTLE CAN CAMMO PAINT JOB. I shot it in the gravel driveway. :D I know it will get scratched up but at least I dont have rust showin through the faded olive drab. :cool2: RD Post up your driveway paint jobs.

One more pic

better than what i could have pulled off. nice :smokin:

is your finger sore? :flipoff2:

30 Minutes to lay out, 4 hours to tape, and 15 minutes to shoot. I'm typing with my thumbs. :D RD

I agree, I like it...only problem is...the rocks wont.

That looks good ,when can I drop mine off???Or just the skins???

RD where do you live in Carson? By the way, nice job on the paint.

Thanx for the props. :D Bring the skins by Rockape thats easy no taping just lay'em on some plywood and shoot them. :grinpimp: I live in north Carson. I was going to get started on the cage next week but now I'm thinking EXO! :D RD

Heres one of the top. You'll only be able to see it when I flop it. :D RD

Your flame lay out actually looks pretty descent!

Here is my daily driver.... it was shot with a descent gun and Sikkens paint but we did on a watered down driveway.... then it took almost a week to cut and rub it. I did it 5 years ago. If you get close you can see a lot of dirt and shit in it, but it is my driver and it looks good goin down the road and even better in pics

I water it down for the primer and base, but I shot it with a $30 gun and cheap Omni acrylic enamel $80 a gallon. :D RD

on the right day, if you know what your doing.... you can get really good results from a driveway.

did you draw your own flames or are those a sticker?

Layed out by hand. I dont like the sticker but it would save a lot of time. :D RD

"Pumkin Orange". Got it at wal mart for like...1.50 a can or so. Everything else is semi flat black, and gloss white on the logo. Only took a few hours to do the hood, that's what ya get when your waiting on parts to arrive. :shaking:

RD, I saw you and your rig at Shaffer's today when I was there bullshittin' with him. You cut out before I got a chance to say hey. You did a sweet job. The paint looks great in the pics and better in person.

what kind of paint are you using? Auto paint? chassis paint? tractor paint? Is it one part or 2? How much do you thin it?

$17 at Lowes. Rustoleum thinned with mineral spirits

Its time to repaint. Rust is coming thru everywhere.

Diggin' the willys-esque two tone thing you got going there.

Well, not driveway.. but my garage with a box fan & furnace filter. (she's a work in progress. 91 with a 83 nose & a 98 2.5L a real "CJ" (combo-Jeep)

Still needs a bit of lift and some tires. But it is mostly a fun toy / weekend driver. :D

It's not a Jeep, but here's my latest out door paint job. Cost was about $150 including decals. Used tractor grade paint and shot with an air gun. Took about 1 gallon of paint.

This was done with rattle cans, and came out awesome. definitely recommend doing a good job on the prep and base (DO NOT sand down to bare metal, unless you want rust popping back up).


The paint holds awesome, mud, snow, wathever I trow at it, and still looks good after a long time :)
