ya, i'm gonna paint that in there black, that is what is left of my first painting attempt. i made the nooB mistake of using enamel color and then trying to clear coat it with laquer, it makes for instant paint stripper, that totally sucked, but my 2nd attempt has made me happy

 

[ketsair]

just for onesojourner, no more yellow!!!:Banane01: :Banane01:

 

[onesojourner]

:woot:

 

[ketsair]

got started finally with putting on the color, used one can so far, it covered the whole top deck pretty good, it'll probably use 3 cans to get it lookin good

 

[onesojourner]

good work. thats going to look so good!

 

[ketsair]

working on my 3rd can right now

 

[ketsair]

i had some leppard spots on it, but i finally got those out. we'll se what tomorrow brings

 

[onesojourner]

how many coats of clear are going to use?

 

[ketsair]

not sure, think i have 3 or 4 on the hood??

 

[ketsair]

on to the clear coat, one thing i learned just now, always test your rattle can on something else!!! the spray tip wasn't all the way on so when i sprayed, i might as well have shot clear coat through a garden hose!! i'll fix that though, i'm not real satisfied with my paintjob on the top deck, but it looks pretty good

 

[onesojourner]

what dont you like about it?

 

[ketsair]

not as even as i wanted it...kinda like a leapard, but i had it in the lights when i was looking, maybee it wont be soo bad??

 

[onesojourner]

there is nothing wrong with a 5-10 foot ski. you will tear it up in no time any ways.
