painting horn mouth
painting horn mouth
anyone know any easier ways to pain the inside of the horn mouth, with all the braces and such. I'm not looking forward to getting up in there with a small brush and roller, trying to get into all the little nooks and crannies.
I painted the braces with Duratex before I installed them. Touched them up afterwards.
Also used some cheapo Walmart black spray paint (0.96 a can) up into the horn mouth before I put the last side on. When the cab was together, rolled the duratex as far as I could and it tied in nicely. Can't really tell unless you are right up on it.

Before you put on the last side. 
Afterwards, a small roller, brush, and lots of paint/duratex on your sleeves and hands. And spray paint.

It's a piece of cake before the second side is on. 
After that, a small trim roller is your new BFF.
For touch ups, and to paint the second side - it helps to start painting as far into the horn as you can reach, and work your way out. I had good luck starting with the sub laying on it's back, then transitioning to sitting on the bottom as I painted.
