I don't know how this stinson stuff got started but I thought I'd let you all in on a little secret. The use of plastic wrap over paint has been around a long time in the automotive paint world. When you see a custom paint job that looks like marble.....it's done with plastic wrap. You put down a solid base color then you spray a marbleizing paint over it then lay plastic wrap over it while it's still wet and peel it up.....WHALLA Marbleized paint. Stinson revealed!:eek:

I'm not sure Bill, but I don't think that the Stinson finishes are so much for aesthetics as they are to defend from alien life forms reading our minds or... I don't know, you will probably have to do a search for "Stinson" and see, I know there is a long and storied history of the secret Stinson finish. It's here, on these boards, but you have to want it! :cool:

I don't think the Stinson finish is anything you can find. It's not in the lathe, the tools, it doesn't come out of a can. It's the touch that comes from the one and only Stinson.

That would explain why my other truck that has a marbleized paint job has never been abducted. Most ailens won't even come close to it.:D
