Yes did it myself. I went to Dip your Car and bought 3 gallons pre thinned camo green, applied it with a Wagner power painter.

Cool. I looked at that site. Just didn't know how well it would hold up.

Did you use all three gallons ? What sort of prep?

Yes all 3 gallons, I had a few ding I had to knock out and some surface to take care of. Just a degreaser wash. I went the no taping off route you just have to spray heavy around the windows and trim, it peels off clean at all the natural break points (trim edges to body).

Thanks for the response. Might go this route at some point, who knows. Got inspection coming next week and then I would have to get a new passenger side fender. It would be a good chance to learn to do some body work as well.
