Keep it simple, O.D. Green with Black trim. That's my plan for my XJ someday.

Tim perfected thinning rustoleum in the big cans to be shot with an hvlp gun... i think we should go that route.... lets paint it something bright

I'm thinking flat tan, maybe even a flat clay/orange for mine

A little darker than this

A little less orange more dirt/clay

Ok I found your color

realtree all purpose pink

im always a fan of OD green but the burnt orange would look good too!

 

[~Spanky~]

Something in Blue would look real nice.

Or

I used a 4” palm sander-Dewalt, used for wood working. Resin type sand paper and about $25 for rattle can primer, $70 for NAPA Dark Blue polyurethane enamel. Plugged in a $9 flee market spray gun, with no dryer and got these results. About $7 worth of Advance Auto pin stripping. Sanded and primed for about 3 hours one afternoon. Wet sanded and dried the next morning. That day I started at 8:30am and drove it outta the shop at 3:00pm (Lunch break optional) First attempt at anything larger than a motorcycle tank. You can do it!

Wait, what ?


final answer: silver


J/k, you should go Pink, lol

The OD green or desert tan will turn out much better if you are spray-bombing it. It would be hard to keep a good consistency with a gloss.

i believe the color of choice is now PUMPKIN PATCH ORANGE... or similar...

Dazzle camo FTW!

i think you should still do a big military star in black on the hood or doors with the orange!!!
