Not sure if Ill do anything else inside the cab.. but this turned out better than i anticipated..
it got shiner and clearer after this pic...

 

Hey that turned out great, how did prep the part and what material's did you use?

 

I did the prep.
what I did, was go to Ace hardware. .get some 80 grid "sandblaster" red paper.
use that with a palm sander to smooth out as much texture as I can.
Then, used 320 and 600 to get it as smooth as possible.. its not 100% perfect...
then I used some Krylon fusion primer, and some Rustoleum primer..
primered\sanded\primered\sanded.. multiple times to try to get it perfect.
Then.. i used about 5 or so coats of arrival blue from a rattle can i got off ebay. PERFECT match on the color.. if anything the flake is more defined.
anyway..
Then i put about 10 coats of Rustoleum's anti yellowing\UV protected 2xx coverage clear coat.
Let that sit.. for about 5 days un disturbed in my home office.
Then wet sanded for 2 days with 1500 grit wet.. sometimes putting a drop of dishsoap to help keep the paper clean.
then buff with 3M perfect II, Zaino anti swirl , some wax, Z6, after a few of those...

 

Damn you did a great job.


Thanks for the help on what you used. I'm messing around with this bowtie in my shop and Just want to paint it to see how good I can do.

 

Yes thanks for posting the steps and materials you used.

As i mentioned it looks great would almost be a shame not to detail other interior parts now to match that spectacular job you did.

 

yeah thats what im thinkin, but i dont want to make the whole interior blue blue blue ricey lookin..
maybe i can do the bose speaker grills.. considered the lid for the center console.. tryin to pick and choose so there's contrast and not just all bloo inside the Blurr..

 

Ya man i have to agree with you on that.

Certain selected parts, that would look awesome.

 

Hell yeah man, looks like a pro did it, thanks for the info.

 

Now, Installed.. im not happy with the buttons..
