Just comparing. Different lighting, but I'm really happy with the results... little things make you feel better about your truck, Lol!

Looks great! So did you hit it with a Rust-Oleum spray bomb?

Looks like a professional did it!

Yep, Rust-Oleum. You know how things look better in pictures, lol! Plus, white hides a lot of imperfections.

Your truck looks grate. Yes, white is the easiest color to work with. I had my 97 Silverado 3 door painted in 2013 at fact-o-bake. The job cost me $865. My truck still looks grate. I have done some touch up spots since it was painted. White is easy to blend in. I just repaired my cab corner on the passengers side. Here is a tip about blending in your repair. After about 1 week. You and sand with 600 wet sand paper. Then polish with a buffer using a cotton bonnet and some white polishing compound. Do NOT wax for about 6 months. Wax seals the paint in. The paint needs to set in for 6 months before it can be sealed in. Here are a few pics of my repair

I lost some weight today (it's hot!) -and the truck gained a lot, in the form of a different bed and a topper. It needs a little massaging, but it's not rusty.
