I never understood why Dodge glued the moldings on 90% of the truck and bolted the 2 small pieces on the front fenders.

How many coats?

Did you take it down to the bare metal?

Primer?

Whose paint?

If you haven't noticed, I am thinking about doing this...

3 coats of white and 3 coats of clear
no. i hit the whole thing with a D A and used 180 grit sand paper
i used a grey sealer as a primer
the paint is MATRIX white and BAJA clear
after paint and clear we let it sit and dry next im gonna wet sand with like 1000 or 1200 grit and compound the truck to smooth out the slight orange peel look ..... shes gonna look like a piece of glass after that
