Fairing paint project... anyone interested?
#11
when i painted my bike and had runs in the clear i just dabbed the runs with a cloth that wouldent leave little fibers behind, there was enough clear on it that it flowed to gether again leaving a perfect finish. no litle valys or mountains and no orange peal effect. sounds realy unprofesional but it worked :P i did have some trouble getting the plastics back to gether but not as much as i expected heres a few pictures of it for general intrest (Got the tail cap after i painted, still have to do somthing about that)
and it is also a first time noob paint job

Jeez Micah,
Thanks for showing me up! I thought I had done a decent job. I will now go blow paint up my nose 'til I pass out! Your bike is sick!!! ( as my son would say ). Killer job!!
Did you paint on the purple graphics? Better paint that tail, pronto! I was so happy to finally, actually, get the damn clearcoat to spray out right that I didn't inspect all the parts carefully. After it dried, I saw a few and wanted to wet sand them down.... but, didn't work out on the practice piece.( tail piece ) Good enough for me though and it's so freaking red! So... you dare throw down the painting gauntlet, do you! I will respond!
Once again, nice job!
