After about 10 coats of urethane.. The wood is finally show worthy! Now we just need to lay it out and trace out the shape of the new wheel tubs so we can cut the wood and place it into the bed!
We stained the wood with a natural oak finish which brings out the grain pattern nicely..
Dad's paint gun has come in quite handy.. Hand painting each of these boards 10 times would have really been a chore.. Ok so spraying them and waiting for them to dry between coats hasn't exactly been awesome either... ;-)
After spraying the boards, we let them air dry over night and then lightly sand them and spray them again.
The boards now have a nice sheen to them. Can't wait to see what they look like when we have them polished!
Boards are ready to go! I need to put a sign on them that says "Thunder pig or bust!"
