F22a cover for an accord

took the idea from typeG i think for the wrinkle painted part, just to add a lil charactor. I used a new product by 3M though and so far i am unsure if i will ever use it again as the dry time is much slower than what i am use to. Doey if you like this you'll have to let me know how this new product reacts, because i am unsure. but here she is.

[snowborder714]

By coated do you mean powdercoated? If so, check the title of the thread

 

[EDM95]

Yea that's what it is but I bet some of these are powdercoated in here too.

[turbotalon31]

heres ones of my vc not to many green ones on here

 

[relicwelding]

Im into shaving the cover and matching it to your paint

 

[KeelesKustome]

This is a lil off the radar from what i had started with this cover, i just didn't like the look, it was not a good one, so i implimented this instead and really hope you like it man.

[snowborder714]

Pretty neat looking.

Can I ask how you did it?

 

[KeelesKustome]

^^^ really?
u want me to tell you how i did it?

wouldn't that take away from my artistic mind?

i can't give away my ways

 

[snowborder714]

I'm not demanding you to tell me

I'm always interesting in how people do things. It is probably something that I could never do, but I could possibly adapt it to something I am skilled at. I enjoy learning.

If you don't want to, that's fine as well. I know some people like to keep their skills and ways to do things to themselves, and that's ok.

Sometimes it's neat/interesting to see how much hard work, time, and effort goes into something.

 

[LiquidX]

Its a painters trick, my buddy showed me when he got back from school years ago for autobody and paint. You use a common household product to make that finish

 

[KeelesKustome]

^^^^ naw man your thinking of the marble effect similar to how i did with the blue and green pearls with saran wrap.

Try incorperating this many colors with saran wrap and see what mess you come up with,, , good guess though.

 

[Squirrel8811]

Here is mine. Painted to match my car
