I wouldnt paint the bodies. The tops and bowls look sick. So the laquer thinner makes the paint look slightly transparent and shows the metal throught the paint?

Make sure you take your time preping them and the outcome will look great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TurboedBug Posted December 9, 2009 Report Share Posted December 9, 2009 I guess I was wrong about the carb bodies, they look great painted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trickedcarbine Posted December 24, 2009 Report Share Posted December 24, 2009 That metal cast is bad ass stuff, gotta really do good prep work for the bare metal stuff, and you can even make plastic look titties! check out my myspace link to my photos and see my NEW BUILD photo album. Every thing that is blue other then the frame is krylon annodiz-it and metalcast paint and I coated it with clear engine enamel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
