how do you paint a fiberglass tub?

Question

i want to paint my CJ-5 jeep tub a fluorescent/john deer green using spray paint or cheap can paint but don't know if it will work on fiberglass. we were going to use rustoleum but it says it does work on fiberglass but if it moves it will chip and crack and break off. of course a car body's going to bend and move a little. does anybody have any suggestions other than getting it professionally done???? thanks! :)

Answer 1

If you are planing on using paint in a spraycan why worry about it chipping off, it's a hack job.



To do it right you'll need a compressor and spray guns. If the body is good then a couple of coats of epoxy some single stage urethane for a topcoat is all you need. Check the forums at autobody101.com.

Answer 2

Paint brush and a bucket of paint.
