hey that is gonna look great....you are doing it the quick and cheaper ways.....and in the end you are gonna be riding it sooner that way....that frame will be plenty good....later if you wanted something tougher than okay...but your moving along and that is gonna be it's own benefit too....

Well dont let anyone tell you its easy to paint a frame with a spray gun and not make a run. You need to be a spider monkey to cover everything and I'm more like a gorilla :laugh: Base coat clear coat not that cheap and well over 10 hours of prep time but I'm not fast but try to do a good job that I wont have to fix later. Thanks for the comp. I have to work fast or I'll forget where every thing goes :unsure:

sure i know you got bucks and much time in just the paint on the frame....

round here if you spray your own frame folks think they know better is all :laugh: ...i bought all the spray guns/fluids/and equipment to do my own spraying soon too /frames..aprts/body...the whole thing is where i wanna end up being compitent...there is some good epoxy sprays and other frame stuff too that gets the frames that wet look...yours looks killer!!!!!....keep it up ...i like this project a lot
