Dark grey with black stripes.
Stay tuned! I think you'll be surprised when you find out how much the paint job is costing me.

I started the paint job by doing the stripes. Here are some shots of how they are coming out. The paint is still laying down and smoothing out, by now it's almost like glass. I'll wetsand it and put on one more coat tomorrow.
I got so excited about this project, I skipped my son's open house! I'm a bad father!
Taped for stripes:
Painting:
Lots of bubbles:
Laying down and smoothing out:

sealer is a better foundation on top of the primer also id u use sealer u dont need as many coats of paint(base coat), u dont always have to use it, like with dark colors it not required, i always like to use it, and it fills in minor sand scratches

I had an old gallon of Behr semi-gloss laying around. I figured hey, it's latex paint, it should stand up to the elements, right?
