Long Travel BS Thread

Another new Douche nozzle?

 

For all you LT guys. Are you happy with the std silver colors most companies use, or would you rather see a different color. We have in house powdercoating, so custom colors are easy, but I'm curious what people would prefer if they bought a kit off a shelf

 

my buddy has a white mazulla kit on his chevy and it looks real good.

 

offer them bare

i'm shopping around for kits right now, and so few companies offer them uncoated. my lowers drag on rocks so often that i have to repaint them after every trip. no need to pay extra for powdercoat that will have to be painted over after the first trip.

should be easy for you compared to other companies who use retail outlets like DSM instead of selling direct.

 

How did you buy enough to do the whole truck for $150?

 

I think he said 2 gallons then thinned them out and used a spray gun.

 

I'll offer them bare no problem. PM me what you are looking for. I offer some package deals.

I have always done satin black. Its a happy medium, doesn't show scratches as easy, and easy to touch up with rattle can.

 

semi gloss or satin black for sure, I'll be recoating my Burg kit when I send the housing and links to get coated. as long as it isn't matte it will look good

 

personally I think black on suspension looks like crap, makes it just blend in with the cage work, I'm a fan of grey/metallic colors that everyone is using currently

 

yup, bought two gallons for $60 each and thinned it down 50% for the spray gun, ended up with 4 gallons for the whole truck. No sanding, no masking, no priming, just an alcohol bath and it's good to go.

 

I love how my kit is Grey. But my arms have taken a lot of bush whacking and are starting to get rust spots. Gonna take it off in a few weeks and repowdercoat it.

 

or just touch it up with gray spray paint

My kit changes color each time I strip my suspension off because I repaint it with whatever Spray cans I have in the garage haha

 

On that note anyone have a spray paint that they used that's a close match for the burg color gray? Mine is in need of touching up too.

 

Huh, giving me something to think about before I sell. What Thinner are you using? MEK, xylene, mineral spirits, acetone

 

Plasti dipped advised me:

I used Industrial Maintenance Coating Thinner at Homedepot:
