It was all sprayed with cans. All the proper steps tho, sand, primer, sand, color, color, clear, clear, sand, sand, i'm sure you get the idea. Its still hard to get the real color with the camera tho.

Re: My LIMITED Blue Rocket! Fresh Paint, Lemme know your thoughts...thanks

I believe it was a pearl paint and the name was Cobalt Blue, i think. The steps are as simple as you want it, depends on what kinda quality paint job youre lookin for. Personally I paint it like I would a car. Sand it, fill any imperfections, sand, prime it with a couple nice coats, light wet sanding, hit it with atleast a couple coats of colour, an even lighter wet sand with a finer grit to get rid of any rough spots, and than hit it with a few coats of clear. Once your clear has cured once again give it a nice wet sand with some 1000 or 1500 grit, maybe a light buff with some rubbing or polishing compound to get rid of any sand paper marks, a little wax, and than take it out and see how fast you can get your nice shiny bike goin. I got a camo pocket bike in the mail now, should arrive next week, I plan on painting it as well. I'll post pictures and the steps involved as I go incase youre interested in seeing the process start to finish
