This was done as a tribute to my old CJ

Damn that came out good, i saw the first pic and was lke damn thats kinda ugly then scrolled down and thought DAMN!! I likey!!
I remember seeing that CJ at the jeep meet last spring/summer at Neuworth in Wilmington, I was in the sahara tj with the windshield folded down.

Thanks,
I hate that I got rid of that CJ

That was black primer on there, so I just wiped it down with some 900 (Preclean) and sprayed the semigloss black on the door hinges, handles, etc, then taped them off and sprayed the rest..

Yes it's all rattle can

They call me the King of Krylon here at work..

I painted my old S10 Semigloss with rattlecans,
(Didn't do the front bumper cover yet in these photos

My old Camaro, Semigloss again complete with primer gray stripes

[Blue70]

Still have the windshield frame to do, but it's getting there..

Also talking to a guy about bending up a new cage for it

 

[tlucier]

Looks great!

 

[ohv_kj]

[andrewhove]

how many cans does it normally take?

 

[Blue70]

how many cans does it normally take?

It depends on the paint, this stuff covers REAL well
So far I am on my 3rd on the Jeep..
Still need to do the windshield frame, but should have enough
I bought 4 cans to be safe..

 

[ohv_kj]

hey drove by your house on sunday...jeep looks good...my wife and i are thinking about buying a house there...give me a call to chat a little about the area

 

[Tobers]

exactly what type of krylon?

 

[GotWood]

Now purchase 2 cans of black and do the undercarrage. Looks great for the first 2 trips off road.

I'm wondering the same. I'd like to paint my Jeep the same color. Let us know, thanks!

it is probably the ultra-flat olive drab green from krylons "camoflauge" line of paints

Let me finish the topside first before I worry about the underside, lol....
I still need to do around the windshield...
It's been crappy for the past 4 days so I have not been able to finish it

That's OK..
It's only spray paint, and it's flat, so you can't see resprays
