Thanks for checking out my video! Just to answer some questions :👍 I originally considered raptor lining everything. But raptor liner is forever. Plastidip would have ripped right off as soon as I hit some brush on the trails. The fiberglass was trashed so after seeing this on the TH-cams i thought this would be a fun experiment to try before tossing the old glass. I think I squeezed a little more life out of the glass. So no harm done. I may end up getting new glass and have it professionally painted. But for now this worked great and made for a fun project/video. Lastly, You can find the decals here: ultimateprodesigns.com/collections/decals-compatible-with-toyota-tacoma
Are you planning to paint it again? I thought about the rhino being permanent too, but unless you're planning to paint it again it's pretty good! And really great for off-roading! Check out U-pol on Amazon. You get the whole kit with air gun. A few of the guys on my department did their trucks and I'm going to do my Suzuki Samurai, I'll send pics when done!
I’m in WA, I think you are too. If you need a hand with finishing this, let me know. I can help you out. The rust oleum fades overtime and looks chalky.
I love see the Tacoma get some love. Ur channel and LLOD is what made me wanna get a Tacoma. Slowly been modding my 18 TRD OR. Half the products I have on my truck are from ur reviews. Ur tuck is an icon in the Taco world. That’s no exaggeration
I did this on an old Pontiac a few years ago. This totally works. You should wet sand after every 3 coats to avoid any orange peel. Buffing at the end is key with carnauba. Great work!
Looks like I stumbled across the local crackheads youtube channel. lol. I did my 4runner in monstaliner and it gets a ton of interest, but like you said, there is no going back
Hell yes! Full steam ahead with the new xfer case and the renewed Toyota content. Tx for the teaser info there at the tail end about a SAS'd Yota buy! Now I get to try and approach my wife with little explanation to an existing rager due to the channel... let's go!
Bro I haven't watched your vids in a while and glad u didn't get rid of the tacoma and tbh that paint job looks legit! Good job! The parachute footage was awesome to witness! Looked like tons of fun!
Maxx, you have BIG BALLS! Good effort for sure, but instead of paying thousands for a wrap, which is semi-temporary, have you considered having the whole truck Line-X'd or Raptor Lined? It would look great and provide protection off road.
I did the same to my shit box 91 Acura integra but I actually sprayed the whole car with a paint gun hooked up to a air compressor cost me 18 dollars 2 small cans and man it came out super clean ! I was amazed of how it turned out and to this day don’t got one problem still running strong 💪🏻 looking flawless this was in 2014 btw
Stopped you in a casino in Vegas while you were there a couple years ago. Cool enough to chat and do a photo. Still love the content. Keep up the good work. All the best. 👍
I cringed watching this at first, but then after hearing your reasoning, I agree. Its a 4x4 and will be used as such. Still a beautiful truck that I want. lol As for the plastidip... its a lot more robust than you may think. I wheeled with plastidip for 2 years without any tears/damage to the plastidip. Just need to get it on right.
Not bad. VGG did a $120 Acrylic Enamel paint job with a kit off ebay. Turned out real nice for a trucked that was going to be used. Need a spray gun though.
OMG even the birds think your paint job is the shits...LOL, DUDE, I used to have so much respect for what you did to the Tacoma BUT I`m sorry to say I just cant believe what you are doing to that beautiful vehicle and to top it off, you are liking the FORD more, I am speechless, I hope Des has still faith in you...LOL..Now your Tacoma Videos are just made for humor ... Keep up the great work...
It's funny how this video is getting such mixed reactions. All I did was refurbish garbage fiberglass panels. I didn't harm the truck in any way, it actually looks alot better and McNeil will send me new glass for free the moment I ask them so just relax 😄 The income from this video will pay for the mods that actually matter like fixing the 4x4 system. I do this shit for a reason, so that I personally don't have to pay out of pocket for a single thing on this truck or litterally anything on this channel for that matter. Let that sink in.. Thanks for watching 😉
@@Maxx.Powell Ok, well I wasnt aware of the whole story, but being a bodyman by trade, it just reminded me of the old days when people couldnt afford to get their vehicle painted so they would use a paint brush or roller to paint the vehicle and it just looked terrible but they had a good excuse, they had no money and didnt really care how the vehicle looked like, it was just transportation but I was just looking at that beautiful Tacoma and wondering why anyone would take a paint roller to it, is all...
Jesus Murphy. What a set of nuts you have, or you super rich can mess with your pricey taco lol. Successful TH-camr you are! Amazing. Keep making the vids
This is an awesome video. I'm a Tacoma person, so please keep up with the Tacoma. I was watching your videos all the way until you start doing your videos with the Raptor then I lost interest lol. Keep up the good work man!
Maxx dont use raptor liner, I built a bumper less than a year ago and used raptor liner and its chips very easy. Its over hyped and I wish I hadn't Used it.
Doesn't look bad at all in the pics. Ill have to come check it out in person. I need to do. Chrome delete on my truck soon so I might need your new found expert advise.
I did white raptor liner on my 2019 Tacoma. Would not do it again. It is a pain to keep clean. I am going to try my hand at a black tremclade paint job this spring with a 2k clear.
My buddy just finished putting a manual fj tcase in his 2016 3rd gen! So far works great and he likes being able to switch into 4low much faster. However his dash doesn't like it so he has his old tcase "computer" still wired in and comes up the shifter and hangs out in the cab with him lol. You should make a video on the swap and if you find a better solution to the dash lighting up ill show him what you find out if you do!
Maybe if you ask Des nicely she will let U buy a shop with her OF£$€ 😂 Decals look awesome N truck is a 'beauty from a far,but far from a beauty😉ThankQ.TkEZ>UK
I'm not complaining by any means, but I thought I'd let you know that there were mid-roll ads on the video. Was that you? Or is YT flexing their ability to monetize just about anything they want... This was a great video tho! Enjoyed it man
I painted a Hyundai Elantra with Rustoleum out of a Harbor Freight gun. It looked so good, but then it started storming. We ended up with a texture like a refrigerator. Lol
Wow man great job painting 🧑🎨 A shop ya baby imagine the content u will get out of it. Pretty sweet I think it will be a good investment forsure Max 🤟

Nice paint job keep up the good work your friend on the big Island Hawaii aloha🤙🏻
Agreed 🤟
great idea not raptor lining the whole truck. Once you do it, you can never go back.
Exactly, raptor liner is forever do et
As an auto body tech this was hard to watch lol
I bet haha. It was a bad idea 😄
Hahaha love the vids man. Keep it up!
As just an enthusiast; it was hard to watch lol. Such a nice truck. Getting it’s skin ruined :(
I’m in WA, I think you are too. If you need a hand with finishing this, let me know. I can help you out. The rust oleum fades overtime and looks chalky.
Yes it was as a bodyshop owner it was killing me to see this. I would have done it properly for free. It would have looked new in 3 hours
I love see the Tacoma get some love. Ur channel and LLOD is what made me wanna get a Tacoma. Slowly been modding my 18 TRD OR. Half the products I have on my truck are from ur reviews. Ur tuck is an icon in the Taco world. That’s no exaggeration
Same here they inspired me to get into off roading. Loved both of their tacons but I decided to go a different route with a zr2 instead.
This was one of the best videos you’ve made in a while, I really enjoyed it
Thanks dude! But did you see my last video ? 🤔 th-cam.com/video/BkCaWXqZv8E/w-d-xo.html
I’m a house painter . Roll the coats even and once your get paint on one area don’t come back to it after paint is even on area .
Yeah wanna see the Tacoma more ! Looking forward to the next video
Paramotoring and tacos that’s my life summed up too!! Great video!!!!!!
Your back! This is the max I enjoy watching!
Major throwback to when you painted the front clip in your garage. I felt your pain through the camera! I've missed these type videos....loved this.
I did this on an old Pontiac a few years ago. This totally works. You should wet sand after every 3 coats to avoid any orange peel. Buffing at the end is key with carnauba. Great work!
wet sand every 3 coats to avoid orange peel, what grit sand paper, and how many coats did you do total?7
I am blown away at how well that paint job turned out!!!!
You seriously killed it, man 🤙🤙
Also, that paramotor part was freaking epic.😤
Looks like I stumbled across the local crackheads youtube channel. lol. I did my 4runner in monstaliner and it gets a ton of interest, but like you said, there is no going back
Wet sand, and put a clear coat, more wet sanding, and then buff.
Hell yes! Full steam ahead with the new xfer case and the renewed Toyota content. Tx for the teaser info there at the tail end about a SAS'd Yota buy! Now I get to try and approach my wife with little explanation to an existing rager due to the channel... let's go!
With tint or decals squeegee from the center and work the bubbles/wrinkles from the center to the outside.
So sad. At one point this was an iconic Tacoma. Hard to watch it’s neglect. Would be nice to see this truck in the hands of someone who cares for it.

Man i have missed the Tacoma! The result turned out good! looking forward to more mods! 🤩
Don’t underestimate the power the roller! I’ve painted cabinets worth probably more then $50k and it turned out great!
That’s awesome! Strong work!
Personally would have rattle canned it. I’ve seen some can jobs look professional
Raptor Lining the flares would make it look sick and keep the White/Black theme going! Great video!
Stopped you in a casino in Vegas while you were there a couple years ago. Cool enough to chat and do a photo. Still love the content. Keep up the good work. All the best. 👍
What tail lights do you have and do you like them?
Looks great! I like the new decals
i also like the ultimatepro designs stripes on the Taco
I'm more then surprised that bondo dried after seeing how well you mixed it lol 😆
Thanks for the science project dad
Any time son! Let's play catch later.. I'm proud of you
I painted my Baja bug with rust oleum but I use a little bit of Hardner and I sprayed it on came out amazing!
Brought me back to when I did this to my first car.
Damn the $50 dollar paint job is back! I remember doing this to my civic back in 2002 lol!
Nice work!!
I’ve done a rattle can to a fender awhile back. It looks better than what it was
the decals make the car looks way better
Impressive dude!! Nice work! I would have not guessed it would have worked out that well. Really cool, thanks for sharing
I actually like the rustoleum better than the other paint
I cringed watching this at first, but then after hearing your reasoning, I agree. Its a 4x4 and will be used as such. Still a beautiful truck that I want. lol

I didn't think it would look that good. Turned out to be a great paint job.
9:00 “…looks like a Ford factory paint job” 😂
OMG even the birds think your paint job is the shits...LOL, DUDE, I used to have so much respect for what you did to the Tacoma BUT I`m sorry to say I just cant believe what you are doing to that beautiful vehicle and to top it off, you are liking the FORD more, I am speechless, I hope Des has still faith in you...LOL..Now your Tacoma Videos are just made for humor ...

I just realized you channel colors are old Toyota colors lol. Great video Maxx.
more tacoma content please!
Jesus Murphy. What a set of nuts you have, or you super rich can mess with your pricey taco lol. Successful TH-camr you are! Amazing. Keep making the vids
Man a portable garage is like 250$ imagine all the trouble that would have saved you.
If you use a brush immediately after rolling it on you will get a super smooth finish
I believe in your method. May do-it myself on my 1stgentundra 🤘🏾
This is an awesome video. I'm a Tacoma person, so please keep up with the Tacoma. I was watching your videos all the way until you start doing your videos with the Raptor then I lost interest lol. Keep up the good work man!
Maybe you should’ve just taken the panels off and took it to a paint shop or raptor line the whole truck
That’s what I was thinking.. even a cheapo Maaco job.
Love the Decals!! Gives the truck an old school Ivan “The Ironman”Stewart vibe.👌🏽🔥🔥🔥🔥
love the ultimatepro designs too !!
It would be awesome to see the entire truck raptor lined🤙🏻
Every time I see those Method 703s it makes me want them more
More trails please. And a very very detailed transfer case install please and thanks. 😏
White and red paint are the hardest to match. You either deal with the mismatch or repaint the entire thing
Hit the trail's but not with the Ford.
Nice work.
Welp this video did nothing for my OCD. Molle bed panels need some love. Great paint job for being roller applied.
Yeah the powder coat on those things suckked! I'm gama raptor liner them as well
Looks great Maxx 👍🏼
No clear coats?
Taking the taco to pikes peak in a couple weeks from washington coast to colorado
Next time Rapture Liner with a roller, comes out perfect and never have to do it again!
LineX the whole truck! Makes it very durable! Wrap and lineX is basically the same price!
Great Vlog...Nice to cya working on the yota! Paint snd graphics look pretty good! 👍
Looks great man 👌🏽 mainly on this Chanel cuz of the Tacoma 😅
Now I don’t feel bad for paint my back bumper.! good job bro.! 😎👍🏻
Maxx dont use raptor liner, I built a bumper less than a year ago and used raptor liner and its chips very easy. Its over hyped and I wish I hadn't Used it.
Wet sanding with 600 -800 between coats will make it really smooth and 1500-2k then buff
It feels so wrong but it looks so good 😂
Looks alot better thats for sure 👌
@@Maxx.Powell I kinda dig the orange peel look for an offroad truck. Check out blacckhillstacoma on IG his wrap is kinda the same texture.
This is the content I like
Doesn't look bad at all in the pics. Ill have to come check it out in person. I need to do. Chrome delete on my truck soon so I might need your new found expert advise.
Should've used a graco airless sprayer. They work great and give a smooth surface.
I did white raptor liner on my 2019 Tacoma. Would not do it again. It is a pain to keep clean. I am going to try my hand at a black tremclade paint job this spring with a 2k clear.
My buddy just finished putting a manual fj tcase in his 2016 3rd gen! So far works great and he likes being able to switch into 4low much faster.

You should make a video on the swap and if you find a better solution to the dash lighting up ill show him what you find out if you do!
Greetings! What kind of paint and what kind of roller? Velor, foam rubber, suede?
You should use Line-X on it..
Maybe if you ask Des nicely she will let U buy a shop with her OF£$€ 😂 Decals look awesome N truck is a 'beauty from a far,but far from a beauty😉ThankQ.TkEZ>UK
More trips and mechanical mods please!
I'm not complaining by any means, but I thought I'd let you know that there were mid-roll ads on the video. Was that you? Or is YT flexing their ability to monetize just about anything they want...
This was a great video tho! Enjoyed it man
I might beaten to the party but is that a molle bed system @15:21? And is it in fact rusted?
Yeah thats the Cali Raised Molle panels the powder coat sucked
@@Maxx.Powell that sucks. Those things aren't cheap. Paint job looks great by the way.
awesome and motivational.. is that a good spelling of that word? Cheers from Australia
You should just raptor line the whole truck crazy the result you can get
You paid $50k for a Tacoma?
More Tacoma content!
if you get the truck wrapped, take it to tailored auto styling in Vancouver
I painted a Hyundai Elantra with Rustoleum out of a Harbor Freight gun. It looked so good, but then it started storming. We ended up with a texture like a refrigerator. Lol
I raptor lined my 3rd gen tacoma. I take it out in the desert every weekend and only wash it about once a year, and it always looks clean.
Solid axle swapped tacoma fuuuuccckkk yeah
Great video. What mole panels do you have in the bed? Look a little rusty 😳
water with soap or shampoo is what you need to be able to adjust the decal then hit it with the heater.
When you gonna ov tune your tacoma
Waiting for a rock crawler
Look if we’re going to have a car wash seen we would like to see the speedo👍👍
Hello Everyone! Have a great Sunday!
It’s a Tanner
Looks good from 10 feet away or more.
Matt, where do you find the time?. Make the truck a overlander for sure. Thanks for sharing and you and the family stay safe
Sweet love the taco
You ever thought about just raptor lining the whole truck?
Been waiting for this one 😃
Wow man great job painting 🧑🎨
A shop ya baby imagine the content u will get out of it. Pretty sweet I think it will be a good investment forsure Max 🤟
Dude I can't wait!
How did you mix the paint? What ratio?
What kind of rock sliders are those?
Did you consider 2k cans?
