[quote]ha!!! yeah your probably right but did you ever notice how the collision shops say they dont make any money like the custom and resto guys and the resto and custom guys say they dont make any money like the collision shops? figure that out!![/quote]
you bike painters make all the easy money after all how hard can 2 fenders an a tank be 😛 😛 :lol1 :lol1I dunno, those bike guys can be pretty picky.
Well all looks for not owner says it was too much the bike owner not the owner of the shop.
Oh well I was just going to fix a few cracks and scuff and shoot any ways I wasn’t about too scuff and buff it would be an as sprayed deal as long as there’s no runs and not a bunch of trash.I already told the shop owner as long as they come out clean I wouldn’t be doing any cutting or Buffing. He doesn’t even know what it means, And he doesn’t want to know.
I did a spare tank he had laying around and a fender and an oil tank to spray plus I had a couple laying around he says he’s going to hang them on his walls in the show room to show customers my work.

Take a look at this site for pinstriping help. I have dealt with this guy before and found him helpful. Scroll down most of the way to get to the kit.
