Thought it would be a good topic...

This looks great! I picked up a buffer today and I'm looking for inovative ways to deal with my trail stripes!

All I need to do now is to ship my truck to England! :)

This may fix or start different scratches!

Well I can't see the vid on this stupid iPhone, but I got one helluva scratch this past weekend. I'll post a pic when I get my truck back, I had a vine scrape down my driverside from middle of my rear door all the way to the taillight ....not pretty.

Yeah I have about 20 cat claw scratches that just won't go away. I remember having one step paint in the 'olden days' where a spray can and polish fixed nearly anything! I hope we can back to that in some form!

I have one on my passenger side from head light to tail light. My truck is scratched pretty bad but for some reason that one is the only one that bothers me. Need to do something about it this weekend when I wash my truck.

Just do what some of the guys up here do, they repaint their trucks white to hide the scratches

White is certainly the best color to hide trail stripes!

I still think a single layer 'as sprayed' finish would be best! Got a nasty scratch? pssssssss pssssssssssssssssst pssssssssssssssst Done and done! :)

That ProMaster SSR stuff seemed a little too good to be true. But if it works then cool, very cool.

I do like Clydes single layer of paint, touch-ups are a breeze. :) I've 10's of dollars wrapped up in too, so initial cost is pretty low. :)

I thought that was just so they could hang out in the "White Tacoma club"? :D

Maybe when 'Black' enters puberty I can can spay him or better yet, maybe the unobtainium paint will be the cure! :)

Also the best color to hide dents and dings

Hell yea....until you park your truck near a campfire. I almost had a heart attack the first time I parked by one. You could see every scratch.

I'll start one.

Here is one of my TW buddies after 1 day in our NJ trails. I told him about the pinstripes, but he looked at my truck and didn't care until he saw this on his. You can't see shit on mine.



White.......FTW!
