Chadatious 0 Posted August 7, 2014 okay the cbr went, and ive been playing with a blade i got last week. was a breaker until i got it, needed an engine case and a radiator mainly,its been made naked with drag bars,and behind the matt black paint its actually a really clean bike, the exhausts spotless, the wheels shine under the dirt, and under the mudguard ive found that its real carbon along with the rear hugger, so they have polished up etc. and it even have flip paint under the black. anynhow ive painted them candy type red with a really glittery basecoat thats dark with some holographic glitter, that looks red in the dark, and goes rainbow in the day, it was bit dark this evening so ill show you some better pics of the glitter in the sun tomorrow! as you can see its a bit bumpy as the glitter and the few coats of laquer are still rought as such so ill be flatting and putting more laquer on to get it smooth saturday dont think its too bad doing glitter all alone for the first time Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chadatious 0 Posted August 7, 2014 thanks dave, i know we do custom stuff at work a lot as thats what we are know for, but i see it as a chance to play with some fancy paints and no worries as its my stuff. think i need to play with some flip paint next and i like the idea of glow in the dark paint, maybe on a set of bike wheels?
