I like the Krylon paint more than Rustoleum.
I had 3 or 4 different Rustoleum cans screw up on me where it would spray out around the bottom of the sprayer tip where it goes into the can and that screwed up what I was painting so I had to wipe it off and start over.

Well I have been busy the last week so I haven't had a chance to update everyone. But on July 4th weekend our town had a truck show and I took 4th place in the top ten class. Then place 2nd in the Burnout Contest. Enjoyed the truck pulls. Then this week she had to sit cause we are taking our camper campin this weekend so I had to conserve gas.

It wasn't so much to the truck as for the truck: Went out to Sears and dumped a few hundred bucks on tools. Almost all of my metric tools were stolen several years ago by a Fungarian (F'in Hungarian) who figured that since I drove domestic I didn't need metric tools, so I had to buy all new except the 1/4" drive sockets that he left behind for some reason. My 6-point deep 3/8" drive SAE sockets disappeared a few years before that... And I don't know how to get out of the Sears tool section with only what I went in to buy.

My roadside toolbox now weighs in at 71.5 pounds. Yikes.
