Hey Guys...
I just bought a 1965 Chevy c30 Dump truck. I do not plan to make her anything near a show queen, just a work truck.
She has some rust and dent issues I want to fix so I do want to paint her. I was thinking about Tractor paint from the Tractor Supply Store.
I understand that the tractor paint is enamel and will fade over time. Will it look like an old paint job or a bad paint job with time? I would not mind a truck that has a patina look to her with age.
Should I look at the “Valspar Tractor & Implement Spray Paint “ or the “Valspar Restoration Series Tractor & Implement Finish”?
In addition, do I have to prime the truck (I will prime the bare metal areas) before applying the paint? Also, if I use the enamel and decide to paint her with ‘better’ paint in the future, do I have to completely stripe the enamel paint off first?
Thanks again for all your help…
