Truenotch Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 What brand of pot belly paint did you use? I painted my motorbike exhaust with a hot black paint from Mitre10. I think it might have been Plastikote brand? It cured nice and flat and stuck really well. I cured it for half an hour or so with a heat gun and it seemed to work well. I feel like it was this stuff: https://www.mitre10.co.nz/shop/plastikote-hot-paint-spray-paint-400ml-black/p/359061 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AllTorque Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 I’m glad you painted the oil cap and air filter bracket black. Red was so wrong. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to try and make "booth" with sheets but it makes no difference. The overspray gets everywhere. But, this primer dust doesn't stick and eventually it gets cleaned off everything. I don't spray much clear really. That shit sticks to everything but I don't seem to have to much of a problem with that. So, in summary, Shit goes everywhere. 7 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

piazzanoob Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 I know you said this on your latest post but is it okay to wet sand expoxy primer? i would've thought that it isn't sealed and ends up wrecking the primer also what grade sand paper do you start and finish with? progress is looking good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
