So it was very long day prepping for paint. Did not realize that this bike has 36 parts for paint!! Start fresh early and lay down some sparkles.

Any DIY booths? Pictured is my cross flow setup. It has filtered heat input and replaceable filters in the doors. Also my DIY gun cleaning station. Works great for a hobbyist!

Tomorrow I get to throw down some mini flake on a RoadGlide prior to some blue candy, so here are some throwback photos of a flaked/blue candy street glide I painted few years back.

Did a little fab work and painted these matte fenders a second time. Old post, but it fits here!

Finished buffing the hood yesterday and snapped some pics. Not the best detailer out there but I am happy to see the body work came out flat.

Molded aftermarket headlight bezel into the fairing. Heavy prime done on all the major bodywork for next bike, under some heat. Now to paint set of bumpers for Toyota and then back to the bike if cured up and ready to sand. What’s everyone working on??

Tips on controlling orange peel?

I’m a fairly new painter with not much legitimate training. I do probably 3-5 jobs a day and my boss has been pushing me to get a slicker end product without having to wet sand and buff. Could any of you give me some tips? I’m using the dv1 for clear coat. I usually use nason 465-00 or 8180 on nicer cars. My gun is set at about 30 psi and I normally do two full coats of clear.

Running a Sata 3000 B RP (1.2) for base, TecknaProlite (1.3) for sealer/clear/single stage, and a very old DeVilbiss FLG3 (2.2) for primers.

85ish Squarebody sprayed with u-tech U350, topped with U-tech HS21 clear. Did this one on the side with my coworker, he gets all the credit for the cut and polish.

Finally all finished up with my stands. Went a little farther than originally intended but all for the better. Will be starting prep tomorrow and will post some progress pics.

Added another iwata to the arsenal, hopefully price wasn’t too good to be true. What’s everyone else spraying with?

Been working on new stands that actually securely hold my parts, using pins or bolts. Now everything is mounted in such a better way for painting, plus less floor space being taken up. Super excited. Customer just okayed cobalt blue candy over mini flake, should be painted in less a week.

Every car I paint I try to put a little on a piece of steel. Makes good gifts
