I used an acrylic enamel and ballpark it was probably $600+ which included
the paint guns, new face mask, etc.  Lots of misc items.  I could paint
another one tomorrow for $200 as the paint is only $135 a gallon.

The video may be out later today if I can wrap it up.

So what paint did you use, and what prices was it?? Did you already mention
this, and I'm older than I thought? :-)

Always be yourself, because the people that matter don't mind,
