The "Krylon" Kaper

Some of you may or may not know of "Hundy" as being my current vehicle of necessity. Hundy and I have had a long life together; around 6 years to be exact. I love my car. I give it a hard time every now and then, but all told, the way I drive, it probably should have passed away long ago.


Recently Hundy has been encountering some rust issues which have forced me to rethink my car. While the engine and mechanical workings of the car are rock-solid, I fear that the body itself will disintegrate long before the car is due for the scrap yard. This means I will be taking drastic measures to prevent the decline of her metal.


This all may sound pretty boring so far. "Yeah so what Dan, people touch their cars up all the time". Well not this guy. This guy has plans.


Enter the Krylon "Camoflauge Paint System".


for a mere $37 at Canadian Tire, I have picked up what will become Hundy's new "Color".
This particular paint applies itself in an Olive-green color and is Matte (not shiny) to the finish. Think of Canadian Military vehicles and their appearance and you will be able to see what Hundy has in store.
Anyhow, as this project progresses, I will be posting pictures and details of how the car is looking and feeling. Who knows... Hundy may even have a post of her own!
