dungbeetle
09-04-2007, 10:57 PM
just primed it with a presure pack so it wont rust for the next few days. it aint the dryest atmosphere down here. the gun and compressor are organised for next week, and the tank will get sanded back and re primed...

Use etch primer first dude...You'll end up with a better finish and a better bond for the primer and paint to stick to.. Then prime! Then prepare and paint!!! I know its only a trackie but do you want a good finish.. What type of paint you using!!??

09-04-2007, 11:18 PM

Kewl Kewl...I would recommend using 2pac, Acrylic will last 10 years longer but you wont get as good of finish... If you need any advice other than what the paint shop will give you just ask dude!!!

i know of another hot pink bike that will hopefully be making its debut on the 29th at Eastern Creek. Looks very very sweet up close as well. Not mine so I wont post pics but its dark blue down one side, hot pink down the other & where the colours meet is a chequered flag strip the length ofthe bike. Sounds weird but looks great.

19-04-2007, 09:21 PM
what colour flake?

kellz
19-04-2007, 09:23 PM
silver

chose silver becaus eteh pink has silver metalic in it and we are doing airbrush highlights in silver so it will all match in, and dungy has chrome suzuki stickers somewhere..

jace
19-04-2007, 09:26 PM
So is that why Dungy is trying to loose weight...........for the axtra paint...:lmao:

kellz
19-04-2007, 09:28 PM
