Painting an Interior cage... [pics]
« on: Jul 27, 2007, 06:05:55 PM »
Is a PITA :D Painted everything behind the front seats. I was going to use a tarp but that was more of a pain so i just used a couple large pieces of cardboard instead. Obviously there are some parts i just couldnt reach to but thats not important.
I really like this primer, sticks really well and drys quick




Used Rustoleum Hammerlite to paint the cage, came out really nice.






Got very little overspray on some of the plastic trim, but it cleaned up well with some thiner. The front section is a little more tricky and requires better prep, ill be doing that next week.
