Anyone do a camo paint job on their jeep with spray paint? I want to do this with my 96 4 door and would love advice as well as pics of your rigs. I know this has been done but my iPhone app won't let me find the thread. Thanks in advance

should've watched Xtreme 4x4 this morning, Ian did a white XJ. Taped everything off, got some flat Krylon, started with black, then brown and green, finsihed with the lightest color. Total time was 90 minutes.

The Camo they did on xtreme 4x4 looked awful. Its as easy as tape, prep and paint to the style you like. If you wanna make it a bit uniform make a couple cardboard cut outs for two of the colors. And just paint the other area's in another.

also this isnt advanced tech just an FYI

Saw the 4x4 Paint job..... Kinda funny looking but proved the point. Just go for it.
Sutdy the pattern you want on google and you will be fine. When all else fails paint some more.

heres some pics of my Bronco mud truck. i know its nowhere close to nice or good looking but it looks better than it did and only took about $40 to do. dont hate me cuz it ant a Jeep... but just gona show ya the before and after. since it is a mud toy we didnt tape up ANYTHING! just sprayed it all and took razor blades and paint thinner to the widows. took about an hour with 2 of us going at it. and about 9-10 cans of paint (including wheels)
