MOTO PILOT should of left black solid then a light coat of Matt silver then rubbed thru the silver with paper

@cunningplan96 5 лет назад

I took a risk with mine, brand new from Zodiac, used a flap wheel to rub it down so it was rough. matt blacked some scallops then red candy with small flake straight over the top, then just candy followed by loads of clear to help make it smooth. Looks great in the sunlight as you can see the swirls under the paint. It was all done on a budget and I bet less than £50 (Approx $65/70 )

Suggestion from an old painter for spray bombs- Submerge the can in very hot water, take it out an shake it, feel for the temperature of the can to get cool, then repeat until the contents is the same temperature as the water. Hot spray cans work A LOT better. Of course shake the hell out of it before you use it.

In 1972, a crack commando unit was sent to prison by a military court for a crime they didn't commit. These men promptly escaped from a maximum-security stockade to the Los Angeles underground. Today, still wanted by the government, they survive as soldiers of fortune. If you have a problem... if no one else can help... and if you can find them... maybe you can hire... The A-Team to paint your tank.

@GiancarloFloyd 5 лет назад

To get the look you were going for you use a black base coat then you do silver over then you use a Brillo pad to get the black to come out from under to give it a stainless steel look.

@michaelstrangefranke7002 5 лет назад

I was going to say the exact same thing the black is supposed to be a base coat and besides who paints the base coat over bare metal what happened to putting primer on he may be a bike builder but he's no painter

@brandoncrist6784 5 лет назад

It blows my mind someone takes time out of there day, sets up a channel to take us through the journey of building bikes. Just to basically raffle it off ship it to the person and get another rider on the road to maybe some epic rides and good times. That all someone can come up with is a negative response. Here is my response to all the time and effort you have put in Thank you! I build all my rides in this same way and they get so many compliments on being creative. Built a Suzuki VS800 shaft drivin hardtail it was sick. To all the negative Dbags go create something it will give you way less time to bitch and you might learn something....BTW bobber and a fullface here and my s**t is full of soul

@XXX-qk2cq 3 года назад

Sure it does, that’s what the comments are for! This guy put himself out as a expert. He calls a Sportster tank a peanut tank and then says bobbers are “ garage builds so they don’t have to be perfect. What kind of attitude is that? You don’t give a shit so make it look like shit?? Christ, show these kids how simply it is to do a really nice paint job, that will stay in style for years, not this stupid fad shit that looks so contrived!!! Put the extra work and time, not money and it will show in the end. You want to tell someone, no I don’t give a shit about my custom, it didn’t put any work into it. I’m from the ‘60s and we didn’t build bikes to look like shit, we started with shit and made them cool...........

@ahill7099 4 года назад

If you spray black like that then take a piece of denim soaked in thinner and spray aluminum paint on the rag. Then you take silver rag while tacky and wipe it on the top all over. Then you have look with full coverage.

@dzachazzurri766 5 лет назад

That peanut tank is looking dope... Just a thought though, I think you should scuff it while the mist of paint is wet, straight line top to bottom, you can control the tone of the color and save you a lot of time. Keep up the good job...

If you wet sand the black with 220 it comes off super easy, then 320, then 500. 🤙🏼

@k55comet 4 года назад

I really liked the first tank. What was it off of? The tank you picked just another sporty tank leaves to much frame showing between neck & tank. It's not a Harley stop trying to make it one go with the first tank cast a shadow off the C cut in the sides of the tank. First time to stop by your site like some of your paint ideas. People way over complicate a nice simple paint job that can be done at home.

@TingBiker 5 лет назад

Well you said the helmet gave you inspiration for the paintwork. Shame you didn't look how it was achieved. Black was the base coat with a light coat of silver rubbed back and then heavy black highlights. The tank would look great if you start again and buy a tin of silver.
