GET BACK TO WORK

Posted by: CHAUNCY

Very nice Pappy. For some reason my trans blue seemed darker. I think I put to much on

Keep up the good work!

Posted by: Rip_Tear

that looks awsome! I like that rock? It looks pretty sweet and orange! You have been working way to hard Pappy! Take a break and go ridin! Good luck selling your house!

Posted by: Pappy

lol...that rock is like 12 feet long. they dug it out of the hole when they installed the pool. i have one buddy that sleeps on it when he is done swimming:confused2

as with any trans color on certain parts you can vary the thickness of the powder and change the shade of the final color. they are actually plenty dark enough but when they are in full sun or the camera flash hits them it shows a bit lighter then in real life

if i find time im doing a trans red 300ex side cover tomarrow so i hope my luck holds for me

CBW....me and trans blue are friends...lol i use over 50 pounds a month of it alone. i finally got some lolypop blue in and although its a cool color its a bit too purple for my tastes

is this normal or did i screw it up

Hence the word "lollypop"...........anyhow this is especially true when a clear is applied over those particular colors,,,,,,,in my experiance anyhow...........and the lollypop red will turn a bit of orange.........if you have a sample of the color from the manufacturer and it hits the light just right the puprle, or orangeish---depending on the color you are viewing of course----will show up and the clear just heightens that aspect.

:confused2 ,,,well to set the record straight.......I never really stopped.
There was a short period of time in which i really didnt care if i woke up or not....or about anything or anybody else frankly......

------and I more than likely left the impression that i was not doing ANY PC anymore.....No big deal really...

But thats just not the case

Posted by: Pappy

thx chris...i thought i had done something wrong

i know if you apply the lolypop blue a bit thick it will be purple

oh well, it matches some of the street bikes pretty well

blue remains my favorite

Posted by: batgeek

beautiful work once again Pappy!

Posted by: Rip_Tear

I really want to see this red! Even if it doesn't come out as nice

Good luck with it Pappy (if you haven't already tried)

Posted by: WalshKFX
