BLACK SPRAY FOR Z RIM LOGOS
« on: December 08, 2012, 04:51 PM »
Does anybody know what spray to use when spraying the Z RIM stencils onto the rims. Can you use any spray or does it have to be a special spray paint for plastic surfaces?

Thanks

Adam

i'd just straight on with the satin aerosol black,  if you use grey primer first then go staight over the top with black without moving the stencil an outline of the primer under the black will be seen....

Thanks for your advice fellas.  :daumenhoch:
you have to use a special paint for it that sticks straight on to plastic i know because i make paint for a living and if you put brakes on itll still wear off though because id have thought the originals would have been screen printed on

So does anyone know if there's a particular plastic paint that can be used without it rubbing off in 2 minutes?

I got some rub ons from Retrospect - look fine to me and way less hassle, you can apply them indoors whilst watching the TV or eating a sandwich, combing your hair - you name it  :daumenhoch:

I've just got some rub ons from ebay in white. I think foot braking will be the preferred method of stopping then to prevent them coming off

You might as well fit a coaster hub or see Kappy for a disc conversion.  :coolsmiley:

Ah, well that I did not know B.   ;)

Shame the paint fella above "Jolly" hasn't followed up - if he makes paint for a living then he should know, maybe send him a PM?  ???

I've taken Phil Sawzalls advice and ordered some clear plastic primer which I'll post to you as soon as it gets to me Bendy.
Which satin black paint do I order though?
