Roll on Painting

Nice link BigRuss!!!

For the price of paint I cant beat the offer to get what I'm wanting. I still wanna try it though. I've got a couple projects to try it on but my 85 is probly the best canidate for it. Dont wanna roll the apache, bel air, or the camaro! I wanna see a two tone method done. I'm thinking a white and black would be pretty good. Some kind of graphic stripe on the body line! Could turn out good! I'll do it as soon as this wind season BLOWS by!!!

both his 66 and my 81 are getting a traditional 2-tone on our trucks... ill post pics up in my build thread when we get to my truck... easiest way to do the 2-tone is paint the top and then the bottom.... specially with the density of the paint... its not the first time ive used this method but the first time ive done it on a truck... painted my old man's boat when i was in high school and aside from the red fading over the past 9 years it still looks pretty good

I'm thinking of trying this myself. I've got the original 69 charger thread, but wasn't sure if we were allowed to post links to other forums.

I painted the '87 v20 flatbed I was driving through the winter of 09/10 and spring of 2010 with a foam roller and less than a half a gallon of gloss black Ace Rust Stop (Ace branded rustoleum, self levels better than rustoleum and is cheaper)..The truck was 4 colors before the paint, just one afterwords, and doesn't look bad..Course, it used to be a pig farmer's farm truck, and looked the part. All we did was wash it with dish soap, let it dry, and roll on one coat. The skies actually opened and poured on it just as we finished, and even with the water marks, it doesn't look bad. The dent in the passenger side of the cab at the back edge is more noticeable..it almost presses into the rear window rubber.
