Spraying Jeep XJ Parts with Raptor Liner

3 years ago

Spraying Raptor Liner is really easy and its a forgiving tactile paint that's perfect for rugged look on all 4x4s. I've used it on parts of the Jeep XJ for the last few years and its help up very well as a durable coating. Its chip resistance isnt great so its not advised to use it as a stone guard, but on sliders, armour, fenders and bumpers its ideal for its abrasion resistance.
Now that the new drip rails are welded in, its time to prime and paint all the prepared surfaces and do a little detailing to make the Jeep XJ pretty again.
I love the colour of my XJ so I wont be spraying the whole thing, but coating the bottom of the doors inside and out, door jams, box rockers, sliders, fenders, armour, bumpers and tire carrier. As well as the roof. Its a lot of painting and because I have already used Raptor on my roof and other parts I shouldn't need more than 5L to complete the job.
In this video I cover some equipment, materials and products used across this whole project as well and demonstrate spraying the paint, along side some reassembly tips to prevent further corrosion.
