I painted my snug top

I bought a white snug top hi liner right after I bought my truck. I keep telling my self I'm going to paint it or get someone else to paint it. My truck is mystic gold metalic. I'm not so sure that will be an easy color to match or replicate.

For those of you who know paint...what are your thoughts.

 

I have a '04 in gold. The truck cap and wheels are painted flat black.

If you go to a local automotive paint shop they may be able to help you look up paint codes that will match. Then you can order the paint yourself or pay to have it done.

 

paint code 4P7 (00258-004P7)

Thanks guys. I have a list of other stuff before paint that's a mile long. Sliders, rebuild sleeping platform, aux fuel tank, CB, Ham radio, forward camera(have back up), on board air, fridge, duel batteries, bumpers, winch and on and on and on. Oh...and a daily driver.

 

Hey I know his is old.. but how did the truck cap paint hold up? Did you have to repaint it ? And how many coats of paint and clear did you pray on?

 

Have any friends with with an HVLP setup? Way better than a compressor gun. Used to build cabinets, and used the HVLP for clear finishes, and spray staining. And, a few painted cabinets.

 

Sadly don't .. I think this or getting it professionally painted is my only choice... I think I'm going to have to get more cans considering mine shell is the 6ft bed wish me luck
