Well, I've taken some candle holders we've had in a bathroom for the last 5 years and used them for testing. Both came out exactly as I had hoped. I believe I will go with the red first. Then, later this year, when I drop the Invidia exhaust on with the rolled titanium tips, I might swap to the blue to match. (Or keep it red)
Criticisms and opinions very welcome. Ref:
I apologize about the crappy iPhone pics in advance.
Before - cleaned up and polished the holders:
Then I washed with a bit of acid, then wiped lightly paint thinner/water (20%/80%) and began spraying:
Then I stood them up to one another. Damn it! I didn't spray heavy enough to gloss it!:
Time to break out the polish and buff for 15 minutes. Getting there:
Not too shabby!! Time to do the other in blue, spaying a little heavier to reduce polish time. Wax and shine:
Please let me know what you think!
