    If your looking for technical advice, I'm not the one. But if you need some help installing it or some company let me know. I'm always down for a project.

    All the bubbles are gone this morning, tried to smudge and peel the areas but you can't even tell there was anything wrong with them. Just as hard and solid as the rest of the paint. Only evidence are the water streaks from where I guess the rest of the water finely was pushed out. Still have...

    Now you tell me... :cry: I did go pretty heavy in the application. Now I know better. I'm hoping it's just the bubbly area that I have to redo. There are several areas on the truck where it looks wet, but dry to the touch. Like the paint is darker and in streaks. And I'm sorry for...

    What I woke up to this glorious morning. Mainly just on the front of the truck. Any quick fixes or do I need to bust out the sander?

    No dilution. The paint gun didn't seem to happy with the straight paint. I did the whole exterior and it took me 1 gallon. Granted I spilled a good chunk of it trying to get it into that small 1 quart storage container. I also applied it pretty heavily. I'm gonna shoot the 2nd coat tomorrow...

    Heh, true. But it's never fun to spend money on the wrong thing.

    It's not your fault, do you have a pic of the correct label?

    NO!!!! Now I have two gallons of brown paint for my green truck...aua P.S. Anyone need some brown paint?

    Is the lid enough for them to match it? They are identical, other than one has brown penciled on it.

    Just FYI. The green and the brown have the same serial number on them. So if you go into the store expecting the green you might go home with the brown. :sad: I'm waiting a call back from the manager to see if I can get a hook up with the green since it's a non-returnable item.
