yeah no clear coat.. forgot to buy it.. but its shiney enough.... ill do it another day i got the ******* flu....

 

i have a ? to all you guys with f.i cages... i couldnt take of the rubber sliders out the ******* whole.... does anyone have an advice i was pulling for like 20 min and couldnt rip it out//.

 

nothing wrong with rattle can,,besides if no thick clear it will get rubb and scratch marks....but heres mine.....again...all rattle cans

 

to get mine out i drilled into the side of it and put a screw driver in it and twisted and pulled at the same time...

 

wow thanks im such an idiot how did i not think of that.... thanks alot...

 

so where should i get the paint from???

 

um have you seen some of the bikes on here, if you do it right rattle can can look amazing

 

looks good but two tone would be better

 

but then your talking about more money, im just saying you can make spray paint look better then some places that do it professionally for much cheaper

 

i actually have a place in queens where they put real car paint w.e color u want from pearl white to candy apple red... 50 bucks a can...... but i just went to pep boys an got some b.s cans...

 

it looks like a bike that a ball licker would own.

 

i just went rattle can flat black it kame out great. when i went to the spot ppl didnt even kno if it was me. ur bike kame out kool i thought u took it to a shop good job

 

this bike looks ****** DOPE. i like the pic 2 with the roached tires layin in the yard and the bicycle locked 2 the pole with no front wheel

 

Ummmmm, yeah. They all look like base coat/clear coat, but without the clear coat. Sow me one rattle can job where you can take a picture of yourself in it and be able to make out the words on your shirt and I will agree with ya.

Like this pic below. Notice the reflection of the florescent lights on the fender.

Dude if you don’t use a clear coat on glossy rattle can paint the **** will look like **** in a min , the elements will **** that **** up faster then it took you to paint it, rain , dust , your pants , most of all the sun will oxidize it and you will be left with the ugliest bike on the planet with a ton of sanding to get it to look good again……….

 

Exactly. Plus rattle can clear coat sucks!! Its not even close to real clearcoat.

 

True but it does work better then none

 

true

 

actually if you go to your local paint supply store they sell
"spot clear" its a little pricey, but worth it. in the paint industry we use it for color matching because it looks similar to "real" clear and it dries fast.
