After shooting the whole cab inside and out with etching primer, I painted all of the interior with DuPont Centari Acrylic Enamel. When talking to my car guys group, they told me ,first, Paint it a light color. This will make it easier to see up under the dash when doing the wiring etc, I chose a very white color that really brightens up the interior. The boys said to just paint it with a brush as it will all be covered up later anyway with upholstery or carpeting. Also you can get into some of the cracks and crevasses easier with a brush. I put on three coats and that should protect the inside longer than I will be around. The Centari white was mixed two to one with a DuPont reducer and one part hardener.
I may have lost a few more brain cells from the toluene smell, but that stuff sure dries fast and hard.
You can see in the photo's that I got a little sloppy and will have to sand some off the exterior. Minor problem. Next I have to do a little more mud filling in spots I missed and then mask off the interior and shoot the outside with the filler primer.
Winter is coming, gotta hurry up.
