Default My Baby is Ready for the Big Dance

Built my smoker last year, got around to cleaning it up and putting a new dress on her this year. Just in time for the first competition of the year over Memorial Weekend.

First step was to sand blast her clean:


Then 2 coats of high temp primer.

Then i sprayed the frame with Rust Oleum truck bed liner:




I sprayed the stacks and handles\door edges with high temp grill paint, then taped it all off and sprayed the first coat of paint


4 coats of paint later and she was ready for her unveiling.

Thanks guys.

Didn't intend for it to be Gamecock colors, but now that we have Stephon Gilmore on the Bills I guess it' ok.

Yes I purchased the whole thing at Wal Mart, how did you guess?

Definitely need to do something with the wheels.They need a good cleaning, but I'm thinking of having them powder coated black too.
