joshdagreat56 Posted January 27, 2005 Author Report Posted January 27, 2005 As far as durability I use all automobile paints. I use a base , red , orange , yellow , white, and house of kolors kandy yellow , which is mixed with there clear. as far as the finish clear i use a limco c 4100 in my opionion it is one of the best clears on the market very smooth and gives alot of depth the pics you see haven t even been water sanded yet , so the shine will be pretty nice once it gets block sanded with 1000 grit than buffed. so i am not very knoledgable on powdercoating but this paint is definetly as durable as a automobile paint job. it has right at 8 coats of clear, it takes that many to cover all the paint of the flames when the 7 th is dry i block sand it to make sure of no waves , then the 8th goes on.

BenBB Posted January 27, 2005 Report Posted January 27, 2005 Awesome work joshdagreat56!!! That's just plain sick, love it Quote
RNBRAD Posted January 27, 2005 Report Posted January 27, 2005 Totally killer work no doubt. I definitely admire those that can do it, people don't realize what it takes to do that kind of work. My airbrush work looks like a blind guy try to paint graffiti. Quote
Dark Ranger Posted January 27, 2005 Report Posted January 27, 2005 Absolutely awesome! Great work. Are you going to try doing plastics? Quote

My airbrush work looks like a blind guy try to paint graffiti. 313042[/snapback] Exactly,I could not do that if I had the rest of my life to accomplish it!You are VERY talented bud! Quote
PolyKarbon Posted January 29, 2005 Report Posted January 29, 2005 I couldnt own a car with a paint job like that. Id be too afraid to drive it. Quote
broke Posted January 29, 2005 Report Posted January 29, 2005 Work like that belongs in a case. I would be terrified to actually use something with that kind of paint work on it. Although, Walt has proven over and over that if the paint is done right, it can hold up to just about anything. Quote
red ore Posted January 29, 2005 Report Posted January 29, 2005 NICE.... actually beautiful. Keep at it until you have the confidence to do the bigger jobs you want, because you definitally have the talent! (wanna paint a racecar?)lol Quote
fixitrod Posted June 28, 2005 Report Posted June 28, 2005 Have you painted anything else like that Quote
