Driveway paint job finished

[Chief_919]

All in all, not bad. But I did learn that the tractor supply hardener and Majic brand flat tan paint are not compatable- I waited the 30 minutes before painting it suggested and was getting large platters as it was already setting. I drove on anyway, and the paint is rough and very orange peeled, but all in all it is on there and looking 100% better than it did before!

I will follow up with a second coat in a month or so with no hardener to level things out some I think.

I used the Tractor Supply hardner with Gillispie and it was fine, strange. Looks great from here Chief.

Tractor supply paint is made by valspar, I have used TSC hardener in Valspar enamel from lowes, they can custom tint it for you

How Many hours you figure you had into the project? I'm considering doing this soon. I need to do a base color similar to yours or OD then going digital camo over that.

About 3 hours to prep, about 2 to mix, spray and clean up.

It was a quick and dirty job, I could have done a lot more with more time, but it looks a damm sight better than it did before.

I'm impressed. I was envisioning an entire weekend of long hours just to get it prepped and sprayed with the first coat. You're giving me a little more confidence to pull this off myself. I was seriously considering paying a body guy on the side to do this for me then I could come behind with my digital stencils I made and start adding layers and other colors.
