Painted my frame today


PSYKO

Recommended Posts

Well I got a ridiculous powder coat quote from a local and said fuck it, I will paint till I start powdercoating myself. I used Dupli-Color Acrylic Enamel, 2 cans primer, 3 cans gloss black, 5 cans clearcoat. I stripped it with that aircraft stuff. I know the paint wont last but by the time it starts looking like ass then I should be able to powdercoat it myself.

Great job man..It may not last that long, but for the time being it looks real good, nice and shinny...

what did you put in the holes to keep the paint out?

 

 

I used the old bolts since I ordered a new ss bolt kit, which came in today...im excited.

Im asking bc I have a few things I want to spray.
