Those streaks are awesome!

[ryan]

Will swap a mars bar and a pack of crisps for how to spray the cool streaks!!

[jonmiller]

what flavour?....haha


i use candy colors of choice for the main streaks doing varied thickness' of streaks. making sure to keep fairly close to the shell and at a fairly fast speed. then back with chrome....

[rcluke]

what masking tape do you use?

or do you use paint mask's?

Hey jon, any chance of seeing pics of a shell through the different stages of painting?? Just to see how much work goes into these beauties

luke - i use avery vinyl, bob divelys liquid mask. if you use tape, only use top quality tapes like 3m. ive also used leccy tape to good effect before.

griff - ill try n sort that out for you asap.

[jonmiller]

couple more simple ones. the baja customer wanted a ghost carbon union jack type thing. didnt turn out exactly how i had imagined it but still came out ok.
cheers

Im thinking that CF weave would look pretty awesome if you used the lighter colours to accent the lines of the body!
