Ok, I've got my cab almost ready to paint (64 C30), and I'm not sure where to start. I'm thinking I'll shoot the inside, and then tape up the holes where the windows, and doors should be, and then squirt the outside. To complicate matters, I'm doing the roof and tops of the doors in white, and the rest in blue (interior blue also), and the doors are off the truck! I'm sure some of you guys have had to do this before.....what was your method? Thanks!

Do the interior first, and don't tape off anything in the jambs, etc. Don't worry about any overspray where the exterior paint will be applied, it can be wetsanded or scuffed easy.
