Cab Painted with Hot Rod Flatz Black

Well after a very long time of prepping the cab and much anticipation of getting some paint on it, It all ended with some slight disappointment. I had some heavy striping effect and fisheyes on some areas. I WILL fix these areas. To top it off, my compressor broke when I accidentally knocked it over. I WILL fix that also :) Anyway, here are some images.

CAB PRIMERED UP


AHHHH... one step closer to getting this baby in paint. With some help from Rudy and Carlos after the bed removal, they were also able to help me do some paint removal on the outter cab.









Today I was able to finish off removing the rest of the paint, got the doors off, prepped door jambs, and finished body filler work. Needless to say it was an ALL day task and I am super SMOKED!! It was very rewarding in the end however because I got to lay down my first coat of etch primer. This should take care of any corrosion for now.

Did I forget to mention the troubles I had getting the door check released? LOL... I tried everything BUT tapping the roll pin upward.

So here are the pic of the cab in primer.
