Customs **BadLuck 52 Part 2- Paint**

Thanks buddy! im no where near photo shoot time haha.. lets just see how this turd turns out first

hey thanks again for the beltline trim!

 

Hahah...damn bro, you got me there!!

 

Sucks pics don't do flake justice.. but here's a few pics with the contrast turned way down on my camera.. helped a little.. Hard to believe there's a jar and a half on the roof! I just need to wet sand and lay a few more coats of clear.. then I'm officially done with my dash and roof.. well until cut and polish time.. Now comes the month long process of removing metal flake from everything i own!

 

Oooooooh glittery! Love it man!!! Gonna look great cleared, cut and buffed. As for flakes all over your shop....wrap a few neighbor kids in fly paper and pay em a few bucks to roll around in your garage!

 

looks good man..i have those same spray guns..I need a better compressor though...Your dash came out awesome..

 

Nice job

 

hahaha great idea!

 

Love the break on the dash. That Kiwi Metallic with the Kream is inspired. Great job.

 

Get it done bro...we have shows to hit!! Same for my arch nemmasis Vince

 

Looks amazing so far!

 

Looks great

 

Looking clean brother.

 

This car kills me. Too cool

 

Nice color choice really like the cream with the kiwi green looking good..

 

Awesome work, you have inspired me to do my 52 now.

When you are finished I would like to hear from you as to how much the sun reflects off the dash when driving.

I am going to be doing mine in a red or maroon similar to what it is now but jut a little brighter.

Keep up the good work can't wait to see the finished job.

 

Great way to go for your first full on paint job . As for any of the arm chair pros just say I'm all ears now tell me how'd you do your first one? You'll more than likely see there back side at this point.

 

thanks guys for the comments.. keeps me motivated

 

love it!!

 

Thanks Lalo

thanks.. im happy with it.. was hard to find something classy and not done already!

Were almost there homie.. we definitely will be cruisin together soon!

Will do.. im curious too see how the reflection is too.. thanks

 

Wet sanded the roof..with help from my daughter then a few final coats of clear.. dash and roof finally done until cut and polish time.. now i can hit the body with 600 and get it ready for paint...gettn' closer..

 

thanks.. yeah im really liking these guns.. they work great

 

thanks

 

I want to have my dash chromed so i have put some thought into this. My idea was to have a piece of vinyl upholstered to match the interior and have some rare earth magnets sewn in. So bam no reflection get to the show pull it off bam metal flake dash. Just an idea.

 

thats a great idea glendale

 

badluck it sucks trying to take pics of metal flake right? no matter how bitchen it looks the camera never captures it. it looks rad. keep up the good fight my friend.

 

Dude!!! that looks like you misted water all over it?? Are you trying to fake us out? You know you can't get past us hambers!!!

JK Badluck... Looks freakin' awesome!!!!! Paint more and show more pics!!!

 

thanks buddy! and YES its frustrating trying to take a pic of flake! ive prob taken 30 pics.. different angles and light.. and if im lucky, ill get a couple glowing orbs haha!

 

hahaha! can't fool you!

 

Im going to be working on the inside of my trunk lid, hood and door jambs this week to get them in decent shape.. not going to get too crazy on them.. hoping to spray them with color next weekend.. im starting to see light at the end of the tunnel
