Default So I did my own custom Paint job!!


So i decided to go ahead and get rid of that standard KH blue on my
trials uni. I decided to paint my frame Vermillian Orange. I wanted to
do my paint job the right way so I decided to powdercoat the frame. The
whole project involved chemically stripping the original blue powdercoat
from the frame, preping the bare metal, applying the powdercoat, and
finally curing the coat at 400degrees for about 20mins. In total the
whole project took me about 3-4hours to complete. Hope you like it. I
will probably be posting other powdercoat jobs in the future.

Here are some pics of the steps I went through to paint the frame.
