Due to the desire to add some auxiliary lighting to my Snow Trac I have decided to add 6 extra lights to illuminate my night drives. 2 rubber Hella area lights will be rear facing. 2 rubber Hella area lights will illuminate the side views. And 2 PIAA high quality driving lights will face forward.
The easiest way to mount these is through the existing bolt holes that hold the roof on. The best way I can think to run the wires is to unbolt the roof, lift it off the Snow Trac, and slide the wires through the seams.
As long as I am going through the effort to remove the roof, my thought is that I really need to repaint it. When the Salvage Squad painted my Snow Trac they did a "10 foot" paint job. Meaning that from 10 feet away, it looks pretty darn good. But the closer you get the more drips and runs you notice, as well as thin spots and thickly coated areas.
So I'm thinking this is the ideal time to paint the roof!
I've seen GREY-SILVER and I've seen WHITE but I have no idea which is the original color. If anyone has a clue, I'd love to know.
I'm not sure what color I would go with, and I'm not even sure if I want to use automotive paint. I'm leaning very heavily toward a 2-part epoxy like Rhino-Liner. It is my understanding that it is now available in very light grey and white and is UV stabilized.
Anyone have any thoughts as to why I should NOT use a RhinoLiner type product?
