Haha, I live in Virginia where I've never seen such an over-abundance of Confederate flags in my life. Actually, they're probably more likely to chase me if I have the Union Jack on the hood.

Thanks June! Your HVLP gun should work perfectly! DipYourCar dot com has the gallons thinned and ready to spray. Check them out! I actually just got DipYourCar's gun and I'm having gallons shipped to my buddy in AZ so I can get a much smoother finish next time around.

That looks excellent. I've been contemplating doing the same thing.
I didn't know there was a camo green plasti-dip color.

I'm thinking about it! Yours looks awesome!

I would not recommend driving in to thick, unfamiliar woods and walking away from the truck any distance - can lose a vehicle painted like that easily...

There is a learning curve involved in spraying this stuff correctly so I can share that with you so it comes out well first time around and you can avoid the first time mistakes.

We can go for this "look"

Thanks for the offer, but I think I want to keep my other body parts green. I already have a Porsche 928 Euro in Matte Dark Gray with Black Gloss Wheels

We got to meet up tho as I pass Tierrasanta everyday going to and from work

Thanks Tim! Plasti Dip has really expanded the colors that they have available. In their "Camo" line, they have OD green, tan, brown. Plus a whole bunch of other crazy colors and metallic colors.

The Disco in ODG is very cool. How long did it take you to mask off all of the windows and trim? I'm impressed. Great job!
