Picked up some paint yesterday, and after some sanding put some down on the hood.

That looks really blue, are you doing the whole jeep or just parts. Nice job though, might want to use some self etching primer...

gobokeneebly

Yes, I am doing the whole Jeep with exception of the roof.

Just a thought on the primer, it will help it stick to the paint better. Make sure you are removing all the dust and grease from the parts you have sanded too. I made this mistake on the belly of my 88 Camaro, and most of the first layer of paint came right off.
Looking good, will be easy to spot on the trails.

Thanks. Ill keep that in mind.
more progress..

What'd you paint it on with?

gobokeneebly

Its brushed on. ?

gobokeneebly

Sorry about the question mark. Using my phone. We are going to wet sand the brush strokes out after another coat or two.

Zack92MJ

thats what i thought, did you sand that down to bare metal?

I saw a similar thread on another forum. It was called the $15 paint job. Although I'm sure it cost more. Nice job, I like the color.

I love that color, looks like my CJ7 that I painted years ago. What color is yours called?

gobokeneebly

Thanks. Put another coat on last night. We used a domain brush this time to eliminate some brush strokes. The color is called Laguna blue.

I've never seen it brushed on, do all the strokes come out and it turns out the same quality as sprayed? seems like it would be far easier to brush it if it turns out the same...

Use a nice foam roller and youll save yourself TONS of work. But honestly, if your prep consists of lightly sanding, no primer, etc., you'll probably be peeling next year.
