1989 Nissan Hardbody Color Restoration

Almost Everything's Car of the Day is a 1989 Nissan Hardbody pickup. This mini-truck came to Almost Everything with its original paint looking worn and unsightly. In some areas the paint actually had completely worn off leaving a bare metal surface, which was now rusting. We began our process by grinding down and treating the rust in certain customer specified areas, then removing all of the additional minor chips and scratches all around the truck. Next we sealed the entire exterior with a primer, which coats the existing surface and gives the new paint something to "bite" onto. Lastly we refinished the truck with our Enamel + UV Protectant paint in its original color!

1970 Dodge Pickup Color Restoration

Almost Everything's Car of the Day is a 1970 Dodge D200 Pickup. This old workhorse came to our shop looking downright beat. The remaining substance that used to be paint just wasn't doing well anymore. The owner decided to take care of some of the bodywork on the truck prior to dropping it off for paint. We began with our Light Chip and Scratch repair, a light sanding around the entire body of the truck to smooth out any rock chips and scratches. After this, the truck's surface was ready for our Primer Sealer, once the final coat of sealer was ready we refinished the entire outside of the truck with our Enamel + UV Protectant paint in the truck's original color!

Toyota Tacoma Color Change!

Almost Everything's Car of the Day is a 2007 Toyota Tacoma. This work truck came to our shop with decent paint, however the owner is a subcontractor for a company that now requires its subcontractors' work vehicles to be white! We began the color transformation with our basic prep; chemically cleaning the truck to remove old stuck on road contaminants, scuffing the original blue paint up so that the new paint could stick onto it, then we masked off all lights, windows, and trim. The owner instructed us to paint the bumpers the same color as the rest of the truck's body, so we did not mask those off. We painted the entire outside of the pickup with our Enamel + UV protectant paint in the brightest, purest white that we could mix, and returned this glossy white truck to its owner!

1994 Chevrolet C1500 Color Restoration!

Almost Everything's Car of the Day is a 1994 Chevrolet C1500 Pickup. When this classic step-side truck came to Almost Everything, its original white paint had seen better days. The clear coat was delaminating or "peeling." It had lots of rock chips and scratches. And it was simply in need of new paint! We began by removing certain items that we were to be either replaced or reinstalled after the paint had been completed, repaired and smoothed some dings and dents in the body sides, and removed the peeling paint by machine sanding the surface until it was smooth. Once the body work was complete, we masked off all remaining trim pieces and the windows, sealing the smooth surface with a primer and finally refinishing the entire exterior of the vehicle with our premium Base Coat / Clear Coat paint! We re-assembled and replaced the items that were taken off prior to paint, detailed the interior and exterior, and finished off the truck's new look with some menacing looking black housing taillights!

Work Truck Restored!

Almost Everything's Car of the Day is this 1995 Chevrolet Pickup. This pickup holds a lot of sentimental value for the owner, not wanting to purchase a brand new pickup he restored the one he already owns with our Base Coat-Clear Coat paint package! He decided that the old blue paint was a little bit too "standard" looking, and instead of refinishing the truck with the original blue the owner had us apply a newer General Motors color. There is no mistaking this truck with its fresh coat of bright metallic blue paint!

Classic Work Truck Brought Back To Life!

Almost Everything's Car of the Day is this 1983 Nissan Pickup, when this little truck came to us it had a serious problem with delaminating paint. Since the paint was gone in many areas, the bare metal underneath was exposed to moisture, causing rust.
