Getting Ready to Durabak My Entire 80

It made her high while she was hepling me. It was extremely funny.
Looks good, how many gallons you got on her now?
BTW: How you like your trxus? I love mine!

I love trxus, been running them for years. Such a killer all around tire and so good as a snow tire.

I ended up with 3 coats, it came out awesome. I'll be posting a full report with all the pics within a couple of days.

I can see how this stuff would get to you in terms of vapors, I did the whole thing outside and had no issues .

how'd you do the roof? I need to do something to cover up the horrid fading paint on my roof.

I had my first set on a K-5 blazer, hadnt been driving (legally) but for 3wks before the first snow storm hit. Some idiot pulled out in front of me at 30mph. I stopped within 5seconds of me down shifting and putting the brake on. I didnt slide to either side, jsut like a normal stop. the gentleman behind me wasnt so lucky, nor the one behind him, or nor behind him( he cut it and went in the ditch). The guy infront of me drove off, and the snow was built up around his plate. .

I apologized to the gentleman behind me, he decided it wasntt worth it to file anything, and the guy who went into the ditch gave me 50 bucks to pull his f 250 (muhhahahahah) out. Then didnt believe me that I was running open diffs at the time!

They also do especially well on wet surfaces!

Any new pics??

 

[TX_TLC]

Yeah! Come on Nay new pics!!

I'd really like to see the door edge transitions. Just to get some ideas. Also, how heavy were those 3 gallons? I was thinking of going this route, but was concerned about the weight. I have green heavily oxidized and dented. Thinking of a dessert tan...hmmmm Did you tint it yourself?

i really want to know WHY anyone would do that instead of going to maaco or something like that at least it would look like paint and its not that expensive i really need to know

 

[julstirn]

First, the cheap Maaco paint jobs are just that, cheap and they limit your color choices.

Also cos the closest auto paint shop sucks (not up to cheap Maaco quality) and the next closest one is in the next county. I'm planning on doing my repaint with a rattle can. All flat camo colors too. That way I can repair it myself when it gets the inevitable scratches I get here on the farm.

 

[fieldsken1]

sorry but even a cheap paint job must look better then that

 

[julstirn]

when i get my 55 i want to do same thing with durabak, not sure color wise yet but tell us how its handling

Cheap paintjob would look like hell after offroading while this stuff can't really get messed up. I know one of the 100 guys is planning on coating the sides of the truck up to the bodyline at the door handles...a little more agressive then what I did on the rockers and lower half of the doors.
