Ranger 8 gets fresh paint

admin

Over the weekend I took and gave my Ranger 8 a little fresh red paint! It turned out well, its not the best, but looks great from 20 feet. My Ranger has a few dents and dings so its not perfect by no means. I didn't get to take any pics of it before cause of the rain. Attached ImagesLincoln Ranger 8

Reply:Looks good terexts! I, as well, gave my Ranger 9 a fresh coat of paint. I have a Lincoln 110 Mig and took the front cover off of it. I then took it to a local paint shop who mixes custom blends and had them match up the Lincoln red. It turned out pretty good. I have alot of faith in these machines since mine has 3500 hours on it and runs perfect.Miller XMT-3502 Lincoln Power Mig 140C (One w/ dedicated spoolgun)Jackson NexGen / Miller Digital EliteMiller S32P SuperWeldcraft 17fv & 9fv Tig TorchVictor & Purox O/ALincoln Ranger 9Fairly Cold Beer!!
