Welcome to the board, dogris!!
Wow.. two new guys drawn out by the brotherhood of the brush! (or roller as the case may be!)
Glad to have you here!
On a side note.. my '46 1/2 ton had been painted many different colors over the years with a brush.. it was quite obvious that they were even less concerned with tequnique than I was.. or even what kind of paint they used.
I figure they probably painted their house every 10 years or so, and whatever color the house got, thats what they painted the truck.
So when I hit the truck with a brush during its tenure here on my farm, I kind of felt proud that I was carrying on a fine tradition, ya know?
This spring i've been thinking i'd like to paint my '88 K2500 because it's currently got two different color doors on it, one blue, one maroon.. and the rest of the truck is red.
I might have to try that wet sand method that guy used on that thread when I get around to painting her... altho I think if I just thin the paint down just enough to get it to run thru a sprayer, I might not have to bother with too much wet sanding.
I'll have to try it with an old fender inside and experiment with what works best.
