Northern Virginia Roll Call

im spending the day getting pumped for turkey season

 

@boogie3478 What type of paint do you use for your rack/bumper? Thinking of doing something like that for my new bed rack when I get it next week

 

For my rack, skids, sliders and rear bumper I used Rustoleum Self-Etching Primer then the Rustoleum Bedliner, but the last few cans of bedliner I used were a pain in the ass where you had to hold the can at weird angles to get it to work. For my front bumper is used the same primer but switched to this flat black enamel which was great to use: https://amzn.to/2Oeo29m

 

Did you get your front bumper powdercoated from brute force? Or did you just paint it yourself over the bare metal? Also, what about the orange that you use? Do you use spray for that as well?

 

I just painted it myself including the orange. For that orange I used this stuff which is pretty close to the color of my wrap: https://amzn.to/2UEBEwY

 

Beautiful, thanks. Why not get it powdercoated from them?

 

Actually I don't think Brute Force even offers a powercoating option. But I always enjoy painting my stuff myself.

 

I just used that same paint on my gussetted spindles.

I used Rustoleum bedliner for my sliders, skids, and bed gussets. Fucking hate that shit. Only benefit is that it matches the powdercoat on my Demello bumper perfectly for touchups.

 

Yep, thanks

 

Also do you do all this in your garage or outside? Lol

 

No garage for me! My dad has a ventilated woodshop in his basement though.

 

Randy and Tyler, nice meeting you guys. Randy, thanks again for the chop. Looks good and I'm a hard person to please!

Thanks Chris!

 

Sure Jeff, I didn't know if you were looking for new or used I hope all is well with you

 

Same with you my friend

 

Looks like someone took the liberty to ram into my car... twice!! The guy who left this note said he backed up into my truck, then pulled forward, then did it again. Not much damage, a scratch in the fender flare and some scratches on the wheel. The police officer said he wouldn't be able to write a report unless I wanted to go through the state, meaning it would be on record that the car was in a collision. I am going to start parking 1 mile away from the closest car each time I go somewhere
