Hey guys i am thinking of painting my 91 xj olive drab green, if any of you guys have done it show em off, Thanks.

 

haha i just got talked out of painting my jeep OD by other jeepers. instead i'm getting new front and rear bumpers. but sometime in the future i'll get the paint job done for sure.

good luck!

 

Why did they talk you out of it? I'm just curious why they thought it was a bad idea

 

You mean the rattle can green like mine? lol

 

I plan on rattle canning mine. My clear coat is peeling bad so i plan on sanding it down and just spraying it olive drab. And maybe putting a Army star on each door. Its not my DD just my trail rig. I was hoping someone has some pics.

 

Here's a shot of mine. I never finnished the camo so the base color is olive green

 

I like it. Well i guess anything is better than peeling clearcoat right? I have some black rock crawler wheels that i think i will paint flat black, i will also paint the grill flat black.

 

will be rattle canning mine this same color this summer. i plan on doing the full military look complete with stars and serial numbers. can't wait

 

I like it on the trails it seems to blend right in

 

well they didn't say i shouldn't do it, it was more of a question of getting the paint job first or a set of front and rear bumpers first. if i had a garage i'd rattle can it myself..

 

ill be doing mine right in the front yard. its a trail truck so not to worried about the paint. just want it to look decent and keep it from rusting.

 

I did mine in the back yard and about 2 min after I got done it rained. lol Just scotch pad the whole thing to knock off whatever shine is there so the paint sticks.

 

I found Italian Olive at walmart today how is that paint?

 

Here's mine, rattle canned italian olive! lol

 

looks good. in my town i seen a xj that had a nice shinny paint job that looked like the green color on the new 4 door jeeps. it looks dang good.
