30Hz.wav Posted August 4, 2011 Report Share Posted August 4, 2011 Sorry, not feelin the yellow stripe. I was hoping you guys could pull off the black, but the stripe kinda killed it. But to each his own. Goodluck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dyeagain15 Posted August 4, 2011 Report Share Posted August 4, 2011 that looks amazing !! how many coats of clear?? Two coats. Laid it on nice and wet to the point of where it almost ran. Had a few light spots to wet sand but turned out great. To the OP, for a rattle can, I'd have to say I underestimated the outcome so far My F-150 Build (So Far) 2 DC L3 10's Kenwood KDC-X794 (4) Selenium ST200 (Highs) (2) RE X8 (Mids) Sundown Sub/Mid/High Amps Shuriken Batteries Knu Wiring My Feedback Thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TLEJ Posted August 4, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 4, 2011 My friend is stupid and would like to know if using a spray can for a flat clear coat is a good idea, and or hard to mess up. EDIT: It's a little moist were the tape was down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bcpballer64 Posted August 4, 2011 Report Share Posted August 4, 2011 If you take your time with the rattle clear it will come out fine but take your time...you guys get one of those handles? Btw looks good so far man stripe is meh b/c of preference but technically it looks good.

CleanSierra Posted August 4, 2011 Report Share Posted August 4, 2011 I'd like to see some good pictures in the sunlight of the entire car. Also, are you gonna scuff the wheels and flat black them too? Im not the one you want to try to troll. Just a fyi for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

white4d96 Posted August 5, 2011 Report Share Posted August 5, 2011 I wish I had half the balls you guys have. I plan on repainting my car hopefully next summer, but I just KNOW I'm gonna muck it up a couple times. Too many projects, too little time...

If you will take a bit of advice, take w/e method you are going to use on your car and apply it to something like a bicycle, go kart or something small, practice taping/masking off, painting different contours and find what works for you. Maybe pick up so pin striping tape from napa and put a pattern on your practice piece, make sure you sand and prime and take it as seriously as your car and you should be gtg.
