Where'd you take something that large to be blasted? Or did you do it at your place? I'm pretty jealous. Paint is going to stick to that thing like a champ!

Was able to prime the frame cab and rear axle yesterday don't have any good pics, but the good news is:
Got some color down inside the cab with raptor liner color tint bed liner. I'm pretty happy with the results

I really like Raptor liner. I typically will add a 1:5 ratio of whatever gloss paint and it gives it a smoother feel and it's easier to clean. Not ideal for a bed, but ideal for stuff like this.

Got the bottom under coated with a breathable paintable undercoating, I originally wanted to raptor the bottom too but was advised against it as it will rot the steel from the inside as it does not breathe
Working on stupid fennin seam sealer now
