Knowing how to paint a Jeep in camo patterns means you can hide your Jeep in the woods, marshy areas or in open fields without it being easily seen. Using Mossy Oak's Shadow Grass pattern, paint your Jeep with natural-looking shadows and grass blades. The 3-D look of this pattern allows you to easily hide your Jeep from water fowl, doves, deer and big game.

Things You'll Need:

  • Sandpaper (120 and 800 grit)
  • Wax and grease remover
  • Lint-free towel
  • Camo stencil
  • Masking tape
  • Masking paper
  • Respirator mask
  • Automotive primer
  • Automotive paint (black, gray, light tan and brown)
  • Automotive clear coat
  1. Sand the surface of the Jeep with 120-grit sandpaper until the surface is dull. You can use a dual-action sander for this step to speed the process. This removes the top clear coat and prepares the surface for primer. Primer won't stick to a shiny surface.
  2. Mask off areas of the Jeep that won't be painted, such as the windows, tires and passenger area of the Jeep. Wipe the surface with wax and grease remover and a lint-free towel.
  3. Spray primer on the Jeep in three thin coats. Allow each coat to dry completely. Once the primer is dry, use 800-grit sandpaper to sand the top layer of primer until smooth. This leaves a smooth surface for the paint. Wipe again with wax and grease remover and a lint-free towel.
  4. Paint a thin base coat of gray on the Jeep. Cover all of the primered areas on the Jeep so that no primer can be seen. Allow the paint to dry.
  5. Go over the Jeep with brown paint, spraying small areas of brown paint in no particular pattern. The finished effect should look like the Jeep is equally painted gray and tan. Hold the first stencil against the Jeep and use black paint to fill it in. Move the stencil over and paint again. Start at the front of the Jeep and work towards the rear.
  6. Move on to the next stencil and use light tan paint to spray the grass pattern. The grass should start at the bottom of the Jeep and reach up towards the top. For longer grass, don't spray the tops of the grass but instead move the pattern up, spray the stems longer and then spray the tops, making the grass stems long. Repeat this around the Jeep and across the hood. Go back over the grass stems with black paint, lightly spraying a few of the stems to give them a shadow look.
  7. Finish by spraying three coats of clear coat paint onto the painted areas of the Jeep. This protects the paint from UV rays and keep the camo pattern looking good.

Tips & Warnings
  • Paint is best applied using a paint spray gun and air compressor, but canned spray paint will work.
  • Never sand or spray primer or paint without using a painter's respirator mask.

I have a Cherokee jeep 1997. what is the best and easiest way to replace a harmonic balancer'

Best or Easiest Way !

You like all the people that come here,
have no motor shown

Sort of funny the way folks ask questions

Never removed one before?

How about watching You Tube Video, on any motor,
to see what is required

If the crank bolt doesn't come out,then you will need an
impact gun & air compressor,no room-- then out comes
the radiator

Most pulleys require a tool to remove & install them

Sometimes you need to make up or weld together a bar,
to keep the motor from turning

My 2005 Jeep liberty is in 2W drive but the light in the dash says part-time 4x4

It's probably the transfer case range switch. It's not real common but I have run into a few that have gone bad. It is located on the top drivers side of the transfer cas. It's not the easiest part to get at and replace but it's not impossible. The easiest way to check it is to pull it out. Then use a voltmeter set to measure ohms and check continuity across the to pins. There should be continuity with the botton on the bottom of the switch in all positions. If there is a loss of continuity the switch is bad. Let me know if you have any questions and I'll do my best to answer them. Thank you for using FixYa.com!

Need to change cracked resevoir on 1996 jeep cherokee(regular cherokee). but i dont know how to remove it off the pump....any suggetions????

Easiest of the "fluid holders", it would be easier to pay a few bucks to a garage and take it off of the engine and have them separate the two, or just buy a new complete unit.

Need owners and repair manuel for a 1994 Jeep Cherokee Country

The easiest to read & understand would be a Chilton's Auto Repair Manual. They have them for almost every vehicle on the road. I had one for a 94 Jeep Cherokee. Available at most auto supply stores and some WalMarts.
