Finally got done with the paint job on my bike. This is the first time i've painted anything. I don't have the proper setup or area to paint, but I did it anyway. It was a pain working out of my garage and out on the lawn, fighting the temperature, rain, wind, bugs, and everything else, but I think it turned out pretty good considering all that. I used a white Car, Truck & SUV paint, along with blue engine enamel, and blue metalcast on some parts. I did spray clear coat over the white paint, and engine enamel. I didn't find out until after I had already done it, but apparently your not suppose to spray Dupli-Color clear coat over the enamel spray, oops! Not sure why not, but it looks like it turned out alright to me. Please see all the before and after photos. Let me know what you guys think.
