It's about 0330 and I've had a sleeping schedule of going to bed at around 0800 and waking up around 1730, 1830ish everyday. I've started doing some things to my 06 KJ Limited.

Starting to Herculine the grill, here goes

Thats what I did to mine. I sanded it down with some fine sandpaper then hung it up and sprayed it down in the shop. You'll like the results :JEEPIN:

I love it so far, although the drying process takes forever when it's around the freezing point haha

Mind posting up a few pictures? Sounds like it turned out pretty nicely.

Oh my, wait until I get my hands on a laptop. My phone doesn't cut it. I went and took the grill a little further and did the front and rear bumper and fender flares as well as the lower portion of the door panels

This was my first time ever using any type of pick up truck bed liner. So I read a few reviews and ended up going with Herculiner. Long story short I bought 2 quarts of Herculiner, a 3M filter mask and a really low end 4 piece paint brush set/paint tray roller combo, used my left over 100 grit sandpaper from the stock refinishing project on my 1939 Mosin Nagant rifle and some leftover yellow colored painters tape and went to town. Oh and also! If it seems like the Herculiner in these pictures isn't completely dry yet that's probably because it wasn't when I took the photos. It goes on relatively shiny and dries a little more dull although it is not to be considered a matte finish though. I am going to hit it up with 1 more quart (to cover up THE OBVIOUS spots.....) but these pictures may give you a general idea of what Herculiner does.

More "finished" photos to follow.

No pics. Looks like you tried to copy and paste them from your Gmail account. You have to host them on a photo sharing site like Photobucket, or add them as attachments.
