Ready For Paint - Aluminum Flatbed Camper

The long-awaited milestone of paint has finally been reached. But not before some extensive prep work to get the camper ready. The edges are fully sealed and the aluminum panels all buffed up. It's getting a 3-stage paint job: epoxy primer, paint, and 2 rounds of clear coat.
Safety Police Disclaimer: I chose not to wear gloves for one specific reason. The gloves I had were large and bulky and it felt more clumsy, awkward and overall more risky with wearing them. And those cuts HAD to be precise. I know the safety police will be upset. I assumed the risk, was careful, and was successful in my task. I did wear safety glasses.

Home away from home. A work of love turning into your home. 🥰😊

[@opalacios666]

So very happy for you. Thanks for sharing.

[@nikkileonard6125]

How exciting! I’m telling you, it’s going to be the best in the world!

[@BadassBrunette]

Awh You're so sweet Nikki! It was wonderful seeing you both today.

[@garyuzzell5677]

This looks like a NASA space probe development project. Are you sure that's not space travel worthy? Nice work Cristin! I can tell you have put in serious time and effort (as usual with your projects....). 👍

[@gerryhartung736]

I like the panels, they remind me of the F117 stealth fighter plane.

[@BadassBrunette]

Definitely a different look/style than what's on the market.

[@J.Young808]

Looks midnight blue ❤

[@sgtrat87]

I can’t wait to see it on yer truck!

[@AndrewKumler]

Looking great !!!

[@adriankung1625]

Really loving these updates!! It IS exciting! This is exactly the kind of thing I would have dreamed up when I was in my 20s, if I had any way of knowing it was even possible for any $$$. It was the days before TH-cam and even half of this would have been too much of a stretch of the imagination, but it's just AWESOME to see you bringing this all together -- and taking us along to watch.
Excited for your little camper build and can't wait to see it come the rest of the way together! It's looking great so far...
Cheers!....from North Vancouver.

[@BadassBrunette]

Thank you for the awesome comment! And thank you for following along. The best of the build is coming for sure!

[@RustyOlive]

Oh dude! That is looking amazing! If I can’t wait to see it come back painted and ready to go to the next stage. I can only imagine how much you are vibrating with excitement! 😂

[@BadassBrunette]

Aaah it can't be finished soon enough! Haha

[@anthonyhodges472]

Ok , it's been 2 days , can't wait for a sneak peak shorty !!

[@BadassBrunette]

Join us over on Patreon! Badass Patreons got an immediate sneak peak last week and are first to know on everything. 👀

[@bernardcarpenter6949]
