  1. My dad used to tell my brothers and me, "you can't walk around starting fights and then come crying to me when someone breaks your nose."

    I think we could allow a bit more time for some newcomers to get acclimated to the site before we start joking with them as if we've known them for years, but some people show up inviting the barrage of insults and sarcastic responses.

    Your father was a wise man......

  2. Hell yeah that green looks real good on that black! I appreciate the shout out Whitey word of mouth has been pretty much my only marketing tool lol and it works great thanks a ton! anyway I just wanted to share a few pics i took while doing these parts. Thanks and enjoy!

    After the parts are chemically stripped down to bare metal there media blasted to etch the substrate I do this extra step to give the surface a mechanical bond for the best adhesion. here they are in the abrasives cabinet.

    special care is taken to protect sensitive areas during sand blasting.

    After all the parts are clean they go through a 3 stage wash system. Sorry no pics of that process i forgot I was taking pictures during this part of the job lol.

    In the oven with the first coat cured. Notice how dull the finish is almost a drab ugly green.

    Then voila a high gloss crystal clear coat brings out the pigments.
