I haven't gotten a speeding ticket though so maybe................. It could also be the fact that it can't speed.

Do it!That's it.........................I'm painting my pickup!
Good info. Thanks SJ.Chemical Resistant Chemical Coating (CARC) paint jobs are not meant to defeat radar. They are simply designed to be able to be cleaned after exposure to chemical or biological warfare. The paint is resistant to damage by decontamination agents.
You must wear a full body suit with respirator when applying paint jobs. To remove the paint, you need the same PPE combined with a top notch filtration system for your shop.
I love CARC paint....but don't recommend it to anyone not working from a proper shop.
I knew the camo pattern was the same on all the trucks, but had no idea how they did it.Here's a random fun fact about your truck:
Those camo paint jobs aren't just random blobs of color thrown together. They're precisely painted so if body parts need to be replaced, they come ready to be a perfect match or so you can take from another truck to get yours going (not preferred, but it happens). So when they come to the shop needing to be sanded down for metal work, or if you need to install a flat olive drab panel, or if you're even going from tan back to camo green - we use a clear template put on a projector and project the pattern from a predetermined distance so everything will be sized properly. From there, on some templates they tell you what color goes where and other templates require you to pull out a book for color placement.
I always thought that was interesting once I learned it.
Don't need them Greg. I have black out lights for driving in pitch black using night vision.You need to get a set of headlights like these Bigun, would look mean on that beast!
Another thing I wanted to mention about the differences in these paints. The camo paint dries very quickly. You really have to lay it on thick to have any runs. Regular spray paint runs pretty easily and you have to be careful and use very light coats. Not with the camo paints.My local Walmart ran out of black camo paint so I grabbed flat black regular paint. They are definitely not the same even though they are both Rustoleum 2x. The camo paint says it is super flat and they are night and day different. The black camo paint has no shine at all.
Just something to note if you ever want to paint something with a really super flat finish.
The Behr paint I am using has no shine to it either.
The picture was taken with the flash on.
No. Is that spray or cans?Have you tried paint with the hardened that TSC sells? I've been wondering if it's any good. TSC has the hardner in small cans on a rack. I've never used it.
