I wish I could take credit for it. I took it to a guy that paints semi's (and airplanes on the side).
Stripped all the old paint with an aircraft aluminum stripper.
Primed with a gray epoxy primer.
Coated with 08 Toyota Tundra metallic silver. Gloss black for banana wrap.
Airstream Blue on bottom rail (to match new rub rail insert).
Painted the Argosy logos blue.
Painted the rims metallic silver.
Toped off with 2 clear coats.
Now I just need a blue strip on my truck

Wow!

That looks great! What about calling it the Argstream? Then you would also be in line with Talk like a Pirate Day! Just a suggestion. Ed
