Trailer Stripes in Tape to get paint ideas
« on: September 24, 2010, 10:52:54 PM »

Taped my trailer today to try and get it a little like the bike.  Ran into a problem when part of the clear coat lifted, all in all for around $100.00 it looks a lot better than plain black.

Did you use a piss-can???? I don't have a spray gun. Where did you get the paint codes. Wish you lived close, I'd pay you to do mine, SUPER job!!!!!!

No paint, this is tape, did this layout as a prelude to paint.  Good thing as the clear on the top lifted in one place, now I know it will need a lot more prep to paint it.  If you have someone local that does custom taping you can get it done inexpensively or if you have anyone good with an air brush they could probably get it right for you too, those guys are real artists.

That looks great! Wouldn't know that was tape from the pics. I attached a pic of what Bushtec did for us as an example......
