Title: Sprayed a Jeep interior with Scorpion over the weekend
Post by: TSCoating on March 11, 2009, 11:00:47 AM: Almost done with it, should have some pics of it detailed up and ready to go tonight.

A customer loaned it to me for the week to use for a show this weekend. I coated the entire interior in desert sand Scorpion. Came out really good.

Post by: jfrabat on March 11, 2009, 02:15:45 PM: Just a stupid question, but do you need to have a spary gun and compressor to do this? I a considering putting some liner in my cab, but I dont have a compressor or air gun (well, I got a small compressor, but it's more for airbrushig than spray painting!).

If you can maintain about 50psi continuous, it'll work just fine.

I can probably maintain 50 psi by connecting both the Jeep's compressor (ARB) and the 110V compressor at the same time (I have done in the past to use air tools, but even with both compressors, impact guns and ratchets drain the air very quickly).

So what exatcly how much liner would I need and what other things would I need to buy to do this? I am interested in liningthe interior of the Jeep, but I would have a hard time explaining to my wife spending a ton of $$$ when she knows I am saving for new tires and a winch...

Nice job, thanks, and good luck on your sales! You've got me bought!

Post by: TahoeYJ on March 12, 2009, 09:57:31 AM: That looks awesome! :smokes: too bad I hate my spice interior, that color looks good in that Jeep though. Nice looking TJ in general.

I do plan on lining my interior and hope to git 'er done this summer. But of course, I'll be reinstalling carpet over mine, I like carpet :weee: At least that way, I can pull it up before I go wheelin' and rinse it out when I get back.

That's what I want to do; lining and carpet. For everyday use, it should improve the soundproofing of the Jeep, which togethe with the hardtop, should make it quite civilized. But for offroading, out comes the carpet, and now you got some protection from the elements fr your interior...

Post by: Jeffy on March 12, 2009, 01:58:49 PM: I have some questions; How thick is the application? I would assume it's hard like Lavaliner and not like Rhinoliner. Does it apply thin on each pass like paint or thicker? Have any Macro picts of it so we can get a better idea of the texture? How good are the sound deadening qualities? Have you done any db testing? Samples?
Title: Re: Sprayed a Jeep interior with Scorpion over the weekend
Post by: TSCoating on March 12, 2009, 02:28:58 PM: It is about 1/8-1/4" thick. I don't have any experience with Lavaliner, but it is harder than Rhinoliner. It still has a bit of give. It is thicker than paint. Basically I lay on one thick coat up close to get all the coverage, and then I spray a bunch of different coats over the surface to built texture and thickness. It is really good at sound deadening, but I don't have any dB tests. I should have done them on this Jeep, but I didn't think about it till after the fact.

I do have some samples, too.

And I'll get some pics of it closer up for you.

Title: Re: Sprayed a Jeep interior with Scorpion over the weekend
Post by: Jeffy on March 20, 2009, 04:47:37 PM: I've got another question to add to the pile.

How flexible is the stuff? Will it adhere to JB weld? I've got some holes in the body that I need to fill in and welding it s PITA.

Also, if I bolt something on top of the stuff will it pull up if I remove it later?
Title: Re: Sprayed a Jeep interior with Scorpion over the weekend
Post by: TSCoating on March 23, 2009, 07:25:13 AM: It is flexible, it has a bit of give so it can be sprayed on plastics (just not the hard smooth ABS-style plastics). More or less, it'll move with what you need it to, but it'll adhere to what you spray it on. If that makes any sense at all. It will adhere to JB weld, I'd just prep it like I would regular metal.

If you let it cure for a week or so and then bolt to it, it won't pull it up. It takes about a week to reach full cure hardness. Bolting it to it earlier than that really can compromise the adhesion.
