Nice. good luck. I did my first back-box silk screen two weeks ago. It definitely helped watching Bryan's video a few times before attempting. however, I still botched the first go at it. Definitely heed his advice about not using too much paint. I was cleaning up paint for hours... must have gone through 50 paper towels soaked with thinner. That paint gets everywhere and clogs up the screen if you don't get it all out.

Quoted from dmacy:

Thanks for the heads up on silk screening. Did you do any practice runs? I have lots of paint thinner and will have a bunch of paper towels ready.

My practice run is what screwed up my first real run. I didn't realize how fast that yellow paint starts to dry and choke up the screen... I did the first run as practice. Looked great. Quickly moved the screen over to the cab, thinking that I could just add a tad more paint, but the screen had already started clogging. Fortunately, I was able to clean the paint off the cab quickly and didn't have to sand or shoot another coat of black. I cleaned the screen thoroughly with Bryan's thinner/folded paper towel method, and the next run was fine.

Bryan, thanks fur the putty knife tip. Moving on to a monster bash resto next. I took my time and learned a lot on that afm project (my first real restoration). Thinking I might be able to cut my labor time in half this time around
