I taped the body up and began painting the cage the wild color me and the wife chose. It’s Sea Glass Green. And yes I like it. A lot. And so does my wife, and she hasn’t even asked how much money I spent on all of this so happy wife=happy life.
Several coats were applied, and painting the cage was very hard to cover every nook and cranny. I used canned spray paint for the cage. Funny story, I bought the wrong color at first because I have a color deficiency for green/blue and it all looks similar to me. Long story best told in person about that, ask me at AOP. I bought Carolina blue at first by accident.
Since I’m not painting in a dust free environment, I decided to hang the hood so it would not be such a large horizontal surface to collect dust in the wet paint. This had its drawbacks but work well enough. Rigged up some sketchy stuff with ratchet straps.
I also decided to prime and paint the fenders the same way instead of rattle can.
The next day I washed and dried the Jeep again and laid down some black.
Thanks to
@Chris_Keziah for letting me use his air compressor when mine decided to give up the ghost.
I also removed the grill, sanded it down and painted it to match the cage. Already gotten some hate for that, but I think it goes together well and makes it pop.
In this pic it looks like it’s a different color but it’s just the light.
