The clear coat on my tow rig is fading and I'm getting white spots on the hood & top of the cab. Since it stays parked outside, I don't want to pull the trigger and paint it until I get a new place with more parking/storage. In the mean time, I'd like to stop it from getting worse by either plasti-dipping it or having it camo wrapped. I'd like to send some pictures of the truck to someone that could quickly/easily photoshop it to help me make a decision. Doesn't have to be great, but I'd like something better than my MS Paint skills can do...any takers?

TIA,
Brandon
 
What vehicle is it? Can you not just Google image search "White '96 Chevy 2500" and get an idea? I bet you could even search "Camo '96 Chevy 2500" and find plenty of images. not even photoshoped, REAL images.
 
I tried that, but can't find anybody that's just done the hood & roof. Its for my '00 F250
 
Post a picture of it and I can give a go at Photoshopping it. I've annoyed @Blaze photoshopping a bunch of his vehicles...
 
Should get a couple of pictures tonight or tomorrow...
 
I was thinking that instead of have a triple colored truck, if whoever photoshops the pictures could also photoshop the silver part matte black/camo as well. Sorry for the crappy photo quality...

A better picture will give better results (there are a LOT of shadows and reflections of parking lot lines, etc), but here goes:

That's a RealTree camo pattern, but I have no ide what scale it would be in real life. Probably a lot smaller than that.
 
I had a guy at work take a few more pictures from more angles with his professional camera.
But then he hopped on an international flight, so no telling when I'll get the photos.
 
Got the better photos...

Leave it until you can have it painted. Are you painting just the bad panels or the whole truck?
Camo wrap ain't cheap. You may be able to get just the panels painted for about as much as the wrap costs.
 
I'll probably have the whole truck painted since its very hard to match the existing paint, but that will only happen when I get a new place so that it can be stored under a roof at a minimum.
I may end up just plast-dipping the hood, roof & the silver two-tone portion myself just to keep it from getting worse. But a camo or black wrap I think would look better than plast-dip.
