^ Yea I already mentioned that.

 

Do you think that would **** with your intercooler painting it like that? In any case, I think it's actually kinda cool.

I'll have to check that stuff out.

 

i dotn haev any cusco parts, but im gonan try to find someone else with them in town adn compare. Though im pretty sure its gonan be darker than teh cusco parts.

 

Thanks for the reply. If you want I can upload a pic of some cusco stuff that reflects what it really looks like in person if that would help.

 

After 6 months, the LIM is faded

 

Hmmmm how many coats did you do? Any clearcoat on it as well?

 

you know, i'd like to see some intercooler pipes painted in this stuff...... would that be too ricey? i'm definitely painting my housings and MAYBE my intake manifolds with this stuff (would housings/LIM/UIM be too gawdy?)
maybe i'll just stick to the housings and sandblast the manifolds.

and i'll stick with the regular brake caliper paint i get from autozone. its extremely thick. i painted the calipers on my 91 and painted the MAZDA emblem on them with white fingernail polish and it made them look like upgraded 'not-stock' calipers.

edit: i just noticed this caliper paint stuff on their site you apply with a BRUSH!? must be quite thick...

 

An entire can on those items, and no clearcoat.

 

did u prime or anything?
Because i want to do this to my engine bay but dont want ur resluts of fading

 

hey guys i did my wheels with the Dupont Gunmetal gray paint and it looks great but let me tell you something very easly scratchable i remember just putting the lug nuts back on i scratec the inside of lug nut hole.. but the actual look of it came out kick ***.. i did gunmetal grey cast with clear coat i also like that anodized red paint i might just go with it like you did man looks great..

i've been swearing by duplicolor for a year now wicked stuff i've used several type of duplicolor on my car, as well as painting on of my electric guitars with it, they have it posted on their "consumer's projects" section all of you shared your car's and everyone's seen mine so i'm going to share my guitar b/c its a little more specail than a few pulley painted and wheels etc.



color changing paint . .

 

that guitar is static dude.

 

No, just cleaned the parts with a steel brush, followed by alcohol, and then the spray.

 

stuff looks great but like asked before is it duplicolor or dupont or does dupont make duplicolor? Anyway i'd like to try the stuff out

 

sweet stuff man

 

yeah duplicolor is the ****, that guitar isn't even together now, the body is up on my girlfriend's wall and the rest of the part are divided amongst other guitars woo woo, i need to paint more stuff
