Painting lights?
Hi,
I've just got a new shell and I am wanting to paint my own lights. What should I do first the lights then the main thing, or the main thing then the lights? Also will I be able to use cans for them or will I need to use an airbrush? Thanks.

Hi m8
No one reli sprays there lights they use the decals or just paint em like a smoky color , if you were to spray them you would need a Extra fine airbrush one of the reli expensive ones John

If no fading is necessary, then you can do it with cans.
I always used to do the lights first then do the rest, as Mr Boult said.  This way you don't get the colours of the lights bleeding through the other colours, and ruining your nice scheme.

if I spray a TC shell, unless someone actually specifies no lights, lights get sprayed, and I do them first. And grills.
