How many of you fellas have OD Green rigs? Mine is in need of paint and with this house remodel I just finished I just don't have the scratch to pay for a professional paint job. I would like to do it myself, although with no prior body work experience I have several questions. I bought this truck to beat around in for now with future plans of a restore. I really just want something to protect the sheet metal for now that will look good for a couple years. The body work will be minimal as I don't have any rust and just one noticeable dent next to the passenger side tail light.
Rattle cans or should I buy a gun? (I have a 200 gallon compressor with an additional 500 gallon tank)
Sand all the way down to bare metal and work from there or just down to factory primer?
Clear coat or no?
Being a beginner, would I be better off with a different color? I figured OD green would hide a lot of my imperfections and flaws.
