  • Argo Tundra Green-Paint Match...

    I know alot of you members are just like me when it comes to making your own mods, so I thought I'd share this lil pc. of information with you all...but specifically if you own any Argo model that has a Tundra Green Body.
    I wanted my hardtop to match the top tub, and found a spray paint that once dry, and it drys very rapidly, almost completely matches the Tundra Green color, or at least to my eyes.
    The spray paint is made by Plasti-Kote, #17035 Camouflaged Green.

    I bought 16 cases myself (2 yrs. ago) , because I knew I'd be creating other things, other than the hardtop I built. Now, in the pic below, had my machine been clean, you would see how much better it matches up.



    I just thought I'd share this tho, cause if your like me, you want things to look as good as possible in a mod. Like, as an example, the glass frame of my windshield mainframe, and the support arm tubes, I plan on painting flat black, but the mainframe, I plan on painting it Tundra to match the upper body. I'm not big on chrome, or other bright colors, as I look upon my Argo as a possible BOV.
    Pictures to come later.

      Yup Yup Yup

      But we shall soon see. The windshield frame I'm building now is steel, and will have a front covering (fascia) of 1/8" thick plastic. So, before...I painted wood, but this time plastic & steel. I don't think there will be a difference, but time and pictures will tell.
