Spray painting 4runner

Has anyone ever spray painted there 4runner. I want to repaint the whole thing. YouTube made it sound really complex. It is a wheeler but I just want it to all be one color. I’m in the Navy and live in the barracks so I don’t have a garage. So it would have to get painted in the sunlight. Any advice thanks.

 

I spray painted an 89 civic. It looked spray painted. not terrible but I left it primer black. Wear a respirator. For what that truck looks like I would leave it as it. Doesn't look bad. You'll likely make it worse.

Might be worth getting a super cheap paint job. But again that paint doesn't look bad at all.

Might be fun to spend a little and get a tent and a real air brush and real paint to try to do it well yourself.

 

Thanks for the advice I appreciate it!

 

+1 on this. I remember what it was like living in the barracks (Ex-Army here). Save every bit of money that you can. Don't paint it or do anything to it unless you have to.

 

Do the prep yourself and have a local paint shop paint it. Time and effort spent on prep….through cleaning and sanding make all the difference in the paint adhering and laying flat.
