I started doing this to my TZR some years back. The best advice can give you is spray a little, often to build up the layers. Always keep the can moving (I presume your spraying it) or you'll get blobs. And don't be to daring with the design.
However when I did it I gave up halfway through and bought a CBR400! |

thanks man, the design im gonna do isnt all that dissimilar to the gsvr paint job. the blue on top and the black line will be the same and the bottom will be silver. for the design i was gonna use tape and paper to cover all the stuff i dont wanna paint and sort of stensil out the shape i want. im only gonna do straight edges though as i think curves would be too hard for me. anything fine detailed, im gonna design myself and get made into a sticker and stick it on and laquor over it. how much paint will i need and how much laquor will i need. also, i have heard people mention that their paint cracked after a while, is there any special paint i nee dto use to stop this happening?
thanks again guys TRICK |
