Luke Nelson knew that the 1980 Chevrolet C10 Pickup Truck was classic enough for every vehicle enthusiast. So, choosing to revive this certain truck was an easy decision, especially knowing that he had artistic capabilities. By using some of Tamco Paint’s products, Luke was ready to take the pickup as his canvas.
His first layer was painted with the Forever Seal to make sure there would be the best adhesion and protection. Then, he applied the Slick Silver Metallic to create a shiny coat, followed by the main star, SoCal Candy Pearl Basecoat. Then his next application was the HC2104 High Solids Clearcoat to create a better coat for protection and even add some more gloss.
And with his new canvas being an ol’ vehicle came a head-turning finish.
