paint

I'm 16 and about to get my license. This was my dads fj40 and after we sandblast, we are going to repaint, unsure of what color to choose. Maybe a matte gray, light blue, or keep it yellow? BTW we have the toyota logos, they just aren't on it right now.

Have an appointment for the new LC on Friday to get the front end (A pillar forward to include lights and rear view mirrors) wrapped in LLumar platinum PPF. Shop also is a Xpel installer. Told me that the Porsche crowd seems to love Xpel, but he didn't see much difference for the price and...

Hello guys maybe someone from here can help, does anybody know what is yhe colour code for this 70 anniversary edition, thanks

I need to do something about my trim/moulding. Clearcoat has peeled and looks horrible. I painted the rims with the duplicolor graphite and it actually matches the bumpers and trim pretty well. However, I'm contemplating going black on the trim, leaving the bumpers dark grey. Eventually, I...

So I just posted in the 100 series forum, but also needing some advice from this forum's vets as well. I am looking at a couple 4Runners that are selling near my area. The first is a '99 Highlander, the under carriage looks pretty good: And also a '01 Sport which looked really good...

I have some rust along edges of roof rack. Was thinking I would pull off rack and strips and have holes welded and roof sprayed. If you have had this done or gotten an estimate, how much for, what were they going to do? I reached out to a couple local places that I know of and first number...

I just converted the front end of my 02 LC into an 06-07. The small sub panels (RH #53903-60080 / LH #53904-60010) that go under the headlights come unpainted. I've never had anything painted professionally so the only thing that comes to mind is having the Toyota Dealership paint them, but...

Does anyone have the paint code for the rear heater cover for a 76 fj40?

Just getting some parts powder coated and wondered about the valve cover. Mine is a 69 F motor so the valve cover is black, or was once. Is powder coat a good idea? And should I do inside and outside or just outside? I have googled it and found some folk saying it can peel off the inside and...

My paint is slowly but surely fading away. The clear has deteriorated so badly on the hood I can wipe it off with my hand. I still have a paint layer underneath that is holding up well but I am looking for a long term cheap solution. Here are the options so far: 1) Monstaliner - they offer a...

I received my new OEM bumper and I am trying to match the paint as close as I can for new bolts and another bumper that I have repaired. I have been through everything I could find here on mud but have not come up with a solution. The 145 code, I was told at Lordco, is real close to the...

I have been painting a couple of bathrooms in our house before spring and have not been impressed with the new paints on the market. The problem with latex paint I'm finding is the stuff never dries hard anymore. It always stays a little soft and pliable. I suspect by removing the VOC's, it...

So, I picked up a 92 to fix and flip and the clear coat on the hood and fender flares is terrible. I know some people black out the hood. That's kind of a niche market for whether people like it or not. Aside from an expensive commercial repaint, what other solutions are out there? What else...

Scratched up a couple wheels pretty nicely in Moab last Smmer... **Has anyone found a *touch-up paint* that closely matches the factory Rock Warrior wheel color? I don't mind scratching them up, but figure I'd try a bit of touch up paint on the deep scrapes where the color is gone. If it...

where do I find all the paint codes for the 70 series? I am guessing that different parts of the world got different paint colors? Thanks.

Someone posted recently about spray painting some of the plastic interior pieces on an 80. It was brown/tan and was a good match. Anyone know what I am talking about? Searched back several months and couldn't find it...

I recently removed my roof rack bolts and welded the holes shut with silicone bronze rod. There was a good amount of rust pitting on all the bolts. I tried removing as much as possible, then sanded and as suggested by a friend, I painted over the area with plain old Kilz. His reasoning was...

Hi All, I'm looking for those front & rear bumpers skins lying around taking up space, after you've built your series 100. I need them with paint in very good condition. Locally (CO.) would be best, but I'll pay shipping & handling if you can wrap well to protect paint. Dark Gray Metallic...
