I don’t know what I was thinking as there will be 2-3 coats of the gunmetal metallic base followed by 3-4 coats of 0.004 flake in intercoat followed by 5-6 coats of candy.. the line edge would be huge!
I will report back with the finished product!
now is a good time to pick up a striping brush and a aluminum panel buddy,
something i wish i has started trying to do, i still can not pinstripe
Like I said above, I didn’t mean pin striping with a brush. Poor word choice on my part.
I meant I’m trying to do some stripes on the sides of the tank with fine line tape.
I’m just trying to have a couple 1/16” or so stripes on each side.
I’m not using a brush to pinstripe, just using finelne tape to spray some stripes.
Yup, i am very clear what you are trying to do, that is exactly why i am suggesting you to pick up pinstriping, not necessarily for this tank you are doing but it is a priceless talent for bikes and cars, a very good money maker. i was just trying to be helpful buddy.
post up some pics when you finish we would love to see it
