Oh I'm glad to see you talk about that paint. I don't want to wax. And I want it to look like the stock top. Texturing and matte finish for me, I think. I talked to Mario today about my idea for LineX on the top. He took a 12ga and shot that one all to hell. Doesn't hold up to the sun. Heavy. looks like crap in two to three years. So paint for me I guess. I want to see the shiney top on the Jeep first.
Mario also told me the next top is under construction and the Nemo tents are on schedule. Just a matter of how fast the fiberglass construction goes now. Problem is only one mold. Fiberglass is one thing (of many) I know nothing about.
That back window bothers me. I just doesn't look right without the glass... but being a "camper" I want the privacy of no glass. And I want to mount something on the inside on both sides. Guess I'll just have to get used to it without the glass.
How hard would it be to put a "bigger" or "stronger" torsion spring in there?The torsion spring has been engineered for a specific weight top and altering that weight will change the torsion bar performance.
I wonder what the process is on the OEM hard tops?I'm not a paint expert but our local painter told us that a matte smooth paint would eventually start to gloss up after repeated waxing. There are bonafide textured paints and we're looking into them.
Talked to Mario today. Getting really close. The Habitat is back from the painters. Just waiting on the tent assemble to complete and it to be shipped to Prescott for final fitment to the shell.
Any significant progess a week later?
