We
have this bike in a million pieces right now and
EVERYTHING is getting painted. Here's a few
shots
of me
and the bike while I'm spraying primer. Keith,
the
bike owner is operating the camera and helping me
maneuver around everything with the hose from my
HVLP
turbine system.
The
"paint booth" doesn't look like much. What I do is
vacuum
the garage, spray the floor down with water,
hang
black plastic over the walls to protect my tool box
and
cabinets and engines ect ect from over spray. I leave
the
garage door open a little and have my space heater
on. It keeps the garage a perfect 74
degrees. When I'm
done I
shut the garage door and the heater will get the
temp
up to 100 degrees. This will "bake" the paint and help
it to
flow out real slick.
For
all you 800 guys, look at the neck area of this frame.
You
may
have to go out in your garage and actually look at your
frame
to be
able to appreciate the work we've done to this frame.
look
how
smooth the neck area is. I filled all the gaps and ground
down
all the welds. This thing is slick!!! When it is
painted
the
bright color we have planned for it it will really look
good.
There
was just no way I could paint this thing as it was.
