My very own paint thread

[Adler]

Alder, At least the one and a half coats you did get put on it sure look nice and smooth!

Yeah, I'm pretty happy with the areas that don't look dull because they didn't get enough paint.

I also like that rig you have for holding the tank up. Do you paint it there as well?

The first time I hung it from a hook in my garage. This time I made that thingie because I figured it would reduce drips if the flatter areas were parallel to the ground. Also, the lighting in the garage is terrible.

I guess I'll go buy another can, sand the areas that aren't shiny (or maybe give the whole thing a light sand) and then finish it off. Then I will have to deal with any pinstripping I decide to do and figure out how to get it clear-coated cheaply in this country.

Just to bad you don't live close to Sarnia...

I was thinking something like this for pinstripping, what do you guys think?

(pardon the quick photo editing)


I would use vinyl and then bury it in clearcoat.

Um, I wasn't busting balls. I really do like the way he suspended the tank.
