One last thought and this may just be me.... A bad *** air brushing of Michael Meyers on the front fender! This bike just screams Halloween to me! Out of sight but it'd be visual murder racing this bike, or even just passing it by >

 

BTW just saw the video, sounds sexy rollin by though it's just a blur jolly good show mate!

 

Thanks!

 

Excuse the thread revival, but I was wondering how much pant you ended up using?

Like how many qrts of orange and clear to be specific.

 

I got 2 quarts of orange, used around 1 quart
I got 1 gallon of clear, used around 2 quarts
I got 2 quarts of primer, used 1 1/2 quarts
I batch of plastic repair, used just about all of it.

Paint and materials (sandpaper/paper towel ect) cost around $600. That was for high quality ppg paint. As you can see I had a lot left over, but nothing sucks more than running out of paint.

 

did you paint the entire bike orange then add black on top? or did you mask off most of the area?

I would just like to know how much paint would be needed to paint an entire bike one color (just plastics and tank), as well as clear it.

You think I could get away with 1 quart of primer? It really doesnt need more than one coat on stuff that was already painted right?

 

I painted everything orange first. I used a lot of primer on account of the plastic repair.

 

Man this whole thread was awesome! I just sat down and read the whole thing. When I get the money I am going to redo mine but for right now Im trying to get it running right. But again great job!

 

Thanks! I like comments either good or bad. I like to hear what others have to say about it. Let me know if any of you have questions.

 

i have to admit as i was reading the thread i thought orange.. really... but wow man sweet job. got an oem feel to it. class
