Should of removed the door handles and windows for paint. This is just something I wished was done on my R/T.

Door handles were left in place. The window trim/molding is going to be replaced. As far as paint on glass, a razor blade takes that right off! Door jambs were painted a week prior, just not with the pearl.

Shouldn't of slid the bed back some :/ I'm pretty sure the guy who painted my truck left the handles on but not fully sure. Looks fine though. Paint looks pretty neat though! I'd buy at least an extra half gallon to keep. I've went through over a gallon of one stage IB paint from painting my engine component brackets, valve covers, traction bars, control arms, ect lol

Were your handles painted prior to paint?
Banana had his painted already so it shouldn't be such a big deal. But mine were not painted prior to painting so when ever I pull up on the handle you can see the black plastic with overspray inside the handles. My paint on the handles are now chipping because of this.

My handles were already painted, so that was why we kept them in place. We used almost 2 gallons of base, but we put the coats on thick, use the tack wipes after the 2nd and 5th coat, did 7 coats of base total, had a lot of primer, then 3 coats of violet pearl, and 3 coats of the euro clear. I'll get sunlight pics when I pick it up sunday and then take it to get the locker installed. The truck was wet sanded today, and buffed tomorrow.

The gun will spray about 8 inches down, so you can't see anything, he has 25 years experience, all he has done his life is paint/body, and build supras. I trust him. Now it's time to build the lt1 he just picked up, it's for his wife, but for $1400, all titanium top end, guide plates etc, nice cam, 175 shot, line lock etc, going to pull the motor and try to get some more dead on dial stickers!

Why there wasn't a need to remove them! All we had to do was cover the key hole. The wet sanding is done, buffing now. I'll take it back in 2 weeks and have the sides skimmed, he said it looks amazing, I can't wait to find out sunday!
