    Ok, I know its a bike. I snagged this pic from the Jockey Journal, the colors are PERFECT! I'll probably get smacked for it but oh well.

    In my experiance a darker flake over a lighter base will make it look muttled. You should get the base coat as close as possiable to the flake and go from there. Or you can do a black base if you want the color from the flake.

    Good Point about the base colour. A white base with a gold or Silver flake over it can come out looking like a 60's Counter top. Your better off with a gold base or Yellow or cream. Do some experimenting and see what you get. To lose a little flake is better than having to redo the complete job.

  10. This is 08 gold holographic flake on a cream base. No motling, looks awesome. Mucho better in the flesh.

    Check out the latest Ol'Skool Rods magazine. The feature "Golden Shower" is a pretty sweet flake job. I have no clue if it's based with gold or white but it is sweet.:cool:
