Building a Cheap Knockoff Jeep- Copying the $110,000 Starwood Motors " Full Metal Jacket"
What happens here
After the initial cleaning, the vehicle is moved to a dedicated spray booth. Here, remaining components such as weather stripping around doors and windows are removed. The entire vehicle is then meticulously masked off using masking tape and large sheets of paper or plastic to protect any areas not intended to receive the Bullet Liner coating, including glass, interior sections, and the engine bay. The blue painted surfaces are then scuffed and prepped to ensure the Bullet Liner adheres properly.
Goal: Prepare all surfaces for optimal adhesion of the Bullet Liner coating.
