thanks jtb.  man, i have to think about that one. cant belive i forgot lol. i sprayed it with a light grey, then a dark grey, and black, then sanded away and went and added more black and grey, sanded again and went with black. i used an airbrush cuz of the size, if it was a little bigger, i would have used a mini gun and on a complete i would have used a fullsize gun. it was actually pretty fun.

I first sanded the nice shiney pearl paint with 100 gritthen I took a paint brush like you would paint your house with and painted black base coat on all the high areas that the sun would hit then I took a a house paint roller and rolled on a red oxide primer over all the black areasafter that i went to wal-mart and picked out my ocean blue krylon spray paint and painted the whole truck (it took about 6 cans and it dosnt have to be perfect)last I wet sanded the high spots that the sun would naturally fade the most with a 320 and 500 grit sandpaperwaaalllaaaa! this is what you get!
