1
Take apart as much of the Jeep as you can. Everything is held together with screws so it's easy to disassemble.

Peel off the old stickers and decals. Some came off perfectly and others were a major pain. I used Goo Gone and a razor blade to help remove the difficult ones.

Give the entire Jeep and it's parts a good cleaning with warm water and soap so the spray paint adheres well. Ours was filthy!

Once everything was dry I covered the wheels with plastic grocery bags to protect them from the green spray paint. I started with the green paint on the body and began painting the Jeep upside down. I did several light coats of spray paint over all the pieces. When it was time for the wheels I used a piece of cardboard to protect the Jeep from over spray. I didn't spray the entire tire, just the white wheels.

Once the spray paint has dried, reassemble the Jeep. I waited to spray the Jeep down with the matte clear coat until it was fully reassembled.

After the clear coat has dried, place your new vinyl decals and replacement stickers. Now go grab your little one because you're done!
