I'm going to be painting an 8' box to the 70 F250 I've been slogging through, inside and out, red SS. I did not think I'd be able to paint the entire thing in one shot without getting too much overspray on the first areas I started painting.
The box is on a rotisserie. I was going to paint the inside, then after a few days in the sun, mask it off and paint the outside.
On the other hand it would be nice to just get it all done at once.
Has anybody ever painted an entire truck box inside and out in a single session? I mainly didn't like swinging a wet side that close to the floor when I need to swing it on the rotisserie to change positions. Was originally thinking I could start on say, the passenger side outside, paint the front, then swing it up, move to the other side and paint the inside of the passenger side (which will now be above my head), then the floor, then inside of driver side, then swing it to level out and paint the outside of the drivers side.
The problem is when I go to swing it up again for coat 2, the wet driver side will be close to the floor and don't want to get a lot of crap kick up on it. I also only want 3 coats on the inside and 4 on the outside.
