Finally Painting over that Ugly Wood Grain!
Decided To to paint that old wood grain. So here goes!
I just Picked some plastic paints and at my local hardware store.
I like to set any of the pieces i paint down in a box so that i can put the lid back on to prevent debris.(and cats
)
I Lightly sand with a wet sponge. I was told it would help the primer stick.
Wiped Down and clean .
Taped the Vents.
And Primed.
More Pics Coming Soon. Sorry for the poor quality was using the camera on my phone.

I like my wood grain too with my dark green truck and tan interior. But I've seen pictures of the wood grain up against other colors, like red, and it looks terrible!

IMO the wood grain is a total eye sore and must be painted. The only time wood grain is acceptable is when it is genuine and done well, like in a Bentley. I don't think it looks right in most vehicles, Esp. a truck.
