so im thinking about painting the TJ a green color like yellaheeps. ive looked into the project and it seems like a few people have done it with success just using the rattle can "grabber green" engine enamel.
the clear coat on my TJ is looking like hell, the doors dont match the rest of the paint, and its got scratches everywhere and just looks like its seen better days.
I know there are alot of you on here who have done rattle can paint jobs so im wondering what the process is...? sand it all down to metal? sand it down past clear coat and prime? how many coats? wet sanding?
gloss or flat finish?
i really want to do this, but not if its going to be a nightmare.
