That is a wild colour combination. Where did you get the cans?My friend owns his own Car spray shop, TRAVIS AUTOS. It's in St Helens, car repairs, body repairs and spray stuff. Sick setup over there, we started it just as a little project on a Sunday night and the idea was to go all green but the silver undercoat went too well with it so I was just like, nah do the back end blue now.. haha it worked sick!
How well do you strip a frame before applying the paint?
Usually just sand it all down nice and smooth but this time Travis Autos had some crazy machines that got it smooth as butter.
Parts you go through most often?
Hardly any. None.
Do you mind the bike getting scratched up when you put it in your car?
Not had that problem yet. I put it on the back seats, so it should be sweet.
Do you have a blanket in the car to protect it?
No way, haha.
Where's the next session going to be then?
