@bucket it has a mostly smooth but textured finish. Here’s some closeups.

Looks like the original tan finish there for sure.

I'd really like to know how GM applied the original finish. I don't believe it was gel coat.

If I were gonna pull the trigger on painting it, I still think I'd go white but man, I've gotta admit it looks real good tan too!

Previous, previous owner 20ish years ago painted the Doeskin tan cap white and some of it runs off when wet so I’d like to ideally remove what’s left of the white and restore the original color.

What can I use to remove the chalky spray paint and not harm the original tan underneath?

Tried pressure washer and a plastic bristle brush to no avail.

If I have to repaint it do y’all think I should go white or body color? Guessing they painted it white due to southwest heat coming right through the uninsulated fiberglass cap.

Where can I find WA8265 Doeskin tan that doesn’t cost $30 a can?

You can use tintable Raptor coat to match the original texture with your color choice. Saw it on u tube 1 if the truck shows that use to bed one tv. Forget the name but it looked good.
