Real96SS Posted June 8, 2013 Author Report Posted June 8, 2013 Alright since I basically have my doors done and what I need to get them playing, time to get the back of the wall done so I can start mounting my amps and the 360. Next thing to do is to get the mdf piece painted black. Thats where the fun comes in. I have little experience with painting so Im going to be doing alot of trial and error. Hopefully I can get it to look decent at least.

Real96SS Posted June 8, 2013 Author Report Posted June 8, 2013 So I got the back piece sanded down and put some primer on it. Now being my first time trying to get a good finish on wood with rattle can. Lets see how this turns out. Here's the pics of the first coat after sanding the primer down. Looks horrible huh LoL!!!

slc123 Posted June 8, 2013 Report Posted June 8, 2013 There is always bedliner, but I wouldn't use the rattle can bedliner. I'm biased because I use it on alot of stuff but that technicaly is sort of your bed your painting so it's not like it would look unatural. But buy some kind of a kit with an air gun for it, or roll it on because the rattle can stuff(bed liner) like I said looks like poo! If you already got your plans and mind set on a certain look go for it! Just throwin out a suggestion is all...carry on My 03' sierra crew cab Here build in progress

Ive always found that putting an extra coat of primer on really helps Oh dude it gets better. It just looked like hot garbage at first. Its 10x better now but still not as good as I want it to be.So tomorrow Im going to put some clear on it and then sand it again before I polish and wax it. So hopefully it turns out the way Im wanting it too Vehicle 2007 Chevrolet Avalanche(Co-Co) DNX9980HD 6 Team Fi 15's(King Edition) 3 DC 9k's 8 Nendo PWX 8's 4 Custom Steg 4" Super Tweeters 1 DC Audio 175.4 1 DC Audio 90.4 Rockford 360.3 3 DC Power 370xp Alts(Externally regulated) 21 D1600's 2 D4800's All SMD RCA's AudioTechnix Deadner Viper Alarm My YouTube- http://www.youtube.c...NG?feature=mhee Link to buildlog- http://www.stevemead...4-15s-2-dc-9ks/ Link to UBL- http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/165059-ublkings-avalanchecoco-new-build-starting8-king-edition-15-team-fis-in-a-wallyes-a-wall/
slc123 Posted June 8, 2013 Report Posted June 8, 2013 Edit: looks like you gotta plan already, just another suggestion you may think about sometime down the road taking the back plastics off the bed rails and the roof in the back and getting them smoothed out and giving them a glossed black look. Ive seen many avalanche's smooth out the plastics back there and color match them to the vehicle and it looks classy, makes you do a double take because at first you almost mistake it for an escalade ext. But insted of color matching it white, you could go black and make the box look seemless to the truck. Might be kinda cool, but I say screw it for now and just do what it takes to get this beast bumpin again! Don't want to give you an idea that gives this project another anymore of a setback. Like I said before just throwin out a suggestion is all, your doin great and keep it up! My 03' sierra crew cab Here build in progress
