$50 Paint Job on $50,000 Toyota Tacoma. Roll on Rustoleum Professional results?

  • This was a wild experiment and actually a fair amount of work. However there were some advantages to rolling on Rustoleum paint instead of spraying paint with an HVLP gun. I was able to paint outside, the masking was minimal, I could pick out debris from wet paint and the paint leveled out quite well. I also installed some really nice looking decals on the Tacoma. You can find the decals here: ultimateprodes...

    Thanks for checking out my video! Just to answer some questions :👍
    I originally considered raptor lining everything. But raptor liner is forever.
    Plastidip would have ripped right off as soon as I hit some brush on the trails.
    The fiberglass was trashed so after seeing this on the UA-cams i thought this would be a fun experiment to try before tossing the old glass. I think I squeezed a little more life out of the glass. So no harm done.
    I may end up getting new glass and have it professionally painted. But for now this worked great and made for a fun project/video.
    Lastly, You can find the decals here: ultimateprodesigns.com/collections/decals-compatible-with-toyota-tacoma

      Are you planning to paint it again? I thought about the rhino being permanent too, but unless you're planning to paint it again it's pretty good! And really great for off-roading! Check out U-pol on Amazon. You get the whole kit with air gun. A few of the guys on my department did their trucks and I'm going to do my Suzuki Samurai, I'll send pics when done!

However his dash doesn't like it so he has his old tcase "computer" still wired in and comes up the shifter and hangs out in the cab with him lol. You should make a video on the swap and if you find a better solution to the dash lighting up ill show him what you find out if you do!
