We ended up using 7 full cans of flat, plus whatever back-stock that was laying around, probably a couple more. Then Jorge got loose with the gloss and sprayed every drop of the five cans and a couple half fulls. I'll get him a few more today during work so he can hit whatever he sees fit later today. What a difference. Those frame rails seem like they just absorb paint, like drywall or something. Too bad I detest the photo posting process on here...

Maybe tonight I'll see if the thing still runs after all the power washing.

Oh yeah, ordered up a set of four Wagner Xenon headlights for it at $10 each from RockAuto (another magnet, coming up). That means there's some painting of the headlight trim rings that needs to be done. The bumper ends and the grill also have their turn today, too.

Now if only HoseB would volunteer to polish the exterior, but I'm not holding my breath on that.
