Question
What all do I need to do to repaint my truck?

Answer
Hi Marcus! Unfortunalely you would need a lot of equipment to do a good job. A 60 gallon air compressor, D/A sander, various hand blocks, grinder, (depending if you had rust or body damage), various grits of sand paper, primer, sealer, and a good quality spray gun. Check out your local autobody supply store for a "do it yourself" manual. Hope this helps! Thanks.
