Outer Limits 4x4 Board

hey

i couldn't really find a place for this post so i thought toyota tech would be the best

im painting my fj75 with 2 pac, well wanting too
i have 2 questions
where is there a good paint shop around the brisbane area who does good 2 pac paint, or is there any shoncky fellas i should watch out for

and

what is the new white paint code for the new 70 series landcruiser or am i just heading down the wrong track?

Firstly, look on your trim and colour plate under your bonnet. There is a colour code there. Then go to supercheap/repco/autobarn etc. And look the code up in their book eg.. 2006 toyota landcruiser code 420ff, It will say something like "Glacier white".

Secondly, Im in the process of 2 pacing my cruiser aswell. Its Illegal to spray 2 pac anywhere other than a booth. There is a poison called iso's in 2 pac. Which is basically sionide. Even if you have a really good resperator it will attack your eyes. Youll need a postive pressure face mask.

And ontop of that. Your looking at, cost wise...
$145 for 4 litres of a half decent primer and hardner
$360 for 3 litres of colour and hardner
$360 for 3 litres of clear coat and hardner

Im looking at just over a grand just for the paint for mine. The body shop I spoke too said if the body isnt too bad $1800 cash done....

Just pay the extra... As 2 pac is also a real bitch to sand runs out of and over spray sticks to everything.

ps. You can get an iso free 2 pac but I have heard its crap and not very shiny...

If anyone here has any idea's for me aswell, Im all ears...

yeah mate i got my brothers bosses booth (Y)
and i got a fella who did one of my bro's mates car and it came out bloody awesome

so hes giving me a nice price

so around $865

all together ayee

thanks mate

cruiser utes got 3 whites 85 to 96ish the 96 to 01ish and then 01 ish up they get whiter as they get newer
a mate put a fender of a 91 75 series on his 2001 79 series and you can fully see the diff colour the older looks very cream

yess thats why im wanting to go with the newer white

so looks like i might have to go to the paint shop and they might have the new colour code and they can make it up for me (Y)

cheers
