Just wanted to share how tired I am LOL. I spent thee days painting my jeep in this heat then spent 1 day scrubbing my garage floor clean by hand on my knees:( but now its prepped for epoxy. Just spent two days painting my daughters room yes two days but you would have to see the wall we did to understand that. Also just spent the entire day today painting my sons room which is not done I have to paint dragon ball Z Ki characters on his wall now. Tomorrow I think will be a relaxing day I hope then saturday I have about 5hrs of driving to do which will result in a new thread by the way I'm pretty excited about that. So thats seven days total of painting or prep or clean up for painting. I think I'm done with painting for a while. Oh no great not done painting I have to add the third test strip of paint to the under side of the XK then pick one then paint that now I guess I'll be busy friday as well. But for now I'm in my backyard sitting down finally reading some jeep threads, Ahhhh life is good.

I guess I won't need to find a job when I get out uh? Although not sure you guys will like the market on the price when I add in the gas money to get there LOL. Here is a picture of the wall that took so long, so many colors and lines man.

The wife is the painter she drew the lines while I painted the rest of the room then I helped her tape and paint the lines.


WoW!! That is amazing!!! Good Work!

Thanks bro, it was a PITA switching colors waiting for ones to dry so you could tape again and paint again and then repeat LOL

The wife finally got to starting my sons characters on his wall. I think she does a pretty good job with this stuff. Here is a picture of the first character that she did.

I at least put a dent in the tons of crap blowing up on me. I took my PS3 apart and re-flowed the circuit and the two main processors. It's working like a charm again at least for a few more months anyway so i saved about $400 on that.:D
