It's all about the pink primer...

Doing a very cl***y paint job on a '51 Buick. Of course the secret is the pink primer. Because everyone knows that it's all pink underneath.

The owner Rush helped out in the shop while on vacation, so he got some sweat equity. He has since went back to work and we are finishing it up.

the start...




just had too...



the start of the bodywork...







primer..





in the pink zone...





black base...





gold on the bottom...





cover liberally with Wild Cherry Kandy...







Shooting the final clear as this is being written... then on to the cut and buff... more pics later or tomorrow...

 

that looks so cool
wish that was mine

 

black and red i would agree thats cl***y and bad*** looking

 

wow. that is going to look awesome.

 

The bottom is a little darker than it shows there now. But it's gonna be righteous.

 

That woulda been WAY bad*** had it'd been shot in glossy pink...hehe. I have a "soft spot" for pink.....
Cool rig.
Last weekend I striped a guys pu and the car he was working on was a '50 Buick fastback, fresh green metallic paint and a chop to DIE for....I'll get some pics next time I'm over there, I think you'll really dig it Z.

 

Oofta! I like it. Cl***y indeed.

 

Wondering why the pink primer when it's gonna be black?

Seems rock chips would be less visible with a darker color primer.


Is it easier to spray black over a light primer/sealer?

 

Looks very nice Scott,

You and yours guys always do good clean work..

The owner will be proud to cruz around in that ..

What ever happen to that 57 Chevrolet you where going to redo, did you finish that?

 

Pink hi-build? I love that stuff.

 

He had already bought some K36 and that's what we used. We tinted a coat or two to mess with him. He's on here so he should see it.

Thanks, we fixed the mechanicals on the '57. Then it went down the road, hopefully he's driving it and having a good time.

 

Thats going to look really nice when its done.

 

The owner did do a large part of the work, he was in here on vacation working side by side with J-Solo and Biscuit.

 

I do have to say, coming home after sanding it...it wasn't pleasant....

 

Nice, very nice....ya can't beat Candy!

 

Thats gonna be sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet! Haha, pink primer...

 

some more from right before we left...





Rush checking his reflection...







check the Kandy...

 

Role that pig outside!!!!!!! Awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Ahhhhhh. A nice, well proportioned, shiny custom is the perfect antidote to the rampant ***gotry of rat rodism. This car will rule, sir.

 

Yes, well proportioned....and the car is good too.

 

Hopefully we will have sun tomorrow, and cut and buff on Friday. At least that's the plan.

 

Well said!

 

lol, that's new sig material right there...

 

Is this kinda like a guy having a pair of pink ******* on under his suit?

Seriously though, the current look looks damn good, cant wait to see it finished.

 

Candy is dandy, but *** won't rot yer teeth

Me likey.
Scott, you da man! Me also like the sharks 'n swallows

 

I have a good crew, that really helps... But thanks Mike, we're trying to pretty 'em up one at a time.

 

dayam.... that it is slick!

I agree roll her outside and let the sun show it in all its glory!


.

 

How'd you know?

Man that car looks sick, I like 'em nice and and pink underneath.

 

Black and pick would have been cool too. Looks righteous Scott.

 

Looks good man! I hope to get out to see my sister again and get another shirt.
