Custom/Hybrid Changing the color on my rrp

[zzylstra]

Has anyone used a tractor enamel type paint in their pole? I got lots of black auto paint and lots of clear but no white. Wondering if a couple coats of white and an auto clear through a gun would come out decent. Thanks in advance for the advice

Yes I've used that tractor implement paint before on many different applications with great success

Are you talking about the tubes or the end caps?

 

[zzylstra]

The end caps, I just finished painting them and just the paint came out great for my first hvlp spray

We powder coat a big majority of our RRP ends. We had a billet pole anodized and it turned out amazing.

Mediocre at best lol

^ that's bad ass. Who did that ? I need some parts anodizEd.

That's a clean pole right there. I shot on the clear and made the mistake of using a lacquer based clear on a oil based paint and it wrinkled it all up

Zack, TCR can anodize your pole here in town. Troy is an asshole, but does nice work.

Ski Clinic had it done for me in my current build http://www.x-h2o.com/threads/119361-Bobby-G3-Picts-Added

I had my last one powder coated, look great stood up just as good

 

[bobbynight]

do you have to strip them before anodizing them again?

 

[zzylstra]

I got the lower piece painted and ready to move on the upper piece

i own a powder coating shop and i powder coated my pump. I am waiting for my cast RRP pole to show up and by the time i get done removing and all the casting marks and powder coat it you would never be able to tell it was the cast version. here pics of pump powder used is TIGER Drylac colors are Candy Purple and Transparent Brass
