[QUOTE="ericman, post: 321270, member: 11909"] Well, made some more progress. Hard to find time to work on this thing. Here's the bottom painted. I had some stuff laying around, so I mixed 2 half pints of Rustoleum gloss smoke gray with 1 half pint of flat white. Still fairly glossy, but should be pretty durable. The whole idea is that when, not if, but when some of this paint rubs off or chips off, it will be bare aluminum showing through, so not quite as noticeable if it was dark green and then chipping showing that white metal. The floor on the inside will be Cabela's light gray tuff coat. [/QUOTE]
