Full raptor liner paint job

[melliott]

Hi all, The Nav's paint is looking pretty bad these days so I am thinking about doing a complete raptor liner paint job.
Who else has gone this route, and do you regret it or wish you had done something differently?
Post your pictures if you can.

Did mine about 4 months ago. 2006 I've owned from new. Met Silver had clear coat coming off everywhere, few rust spots etc. Banged a few big dings out ( type of- not really worried about them, all part of the character ) Ran out of silver so bonnet ended up with a go fast black stripe. All shiny bits , door handles, running boards blacked. 3 cans black and 8 or 9 silver from memory.

Looks good mate.
Silver raptor always turns out well.

Did you do a closed or open door spray?

Left doors on, bonnet off. Removed door handles and rubber seals. Taped up the car body around door openings to get a clean line finish.
Used the raptor adjustable gun, 2 full coats and a dust coat shot about a metre or so back.
Outside under big deck, doesn't seem to attract bugs as much like 2 pack poly.
Hard part was trying to get a decent weather window in SE Qld with the constant rain.

Mate definitely worth it If you drive through the bush as I got mine done about a year ago and I love it the trees sticks rocks that hit my car do no markings at all and the mud comes of without soap just hit it with the gurnie and its like your painting it again
