That last one really is custard :LolLolLolLol:
How do you hang them Dan?? do you hook on inside to holes for the top tubes or just friction fit the welding rod.

tbh, every frame is differant, some have internal holes and some don't,

the trick is to find where you can hang to paint so when you remove the hook

there's only a small mark, that a seat post or brake caliper will hide :daumenhoch:

Beautiful colours, but that welded Ripper was crying out for the weld to be smoothed off before being finished

AMAZING dan! What a job, im relly looking forward to meeting you on saturay to get them!
That orange is amazing. The yellow is done to replicate a yellow 90's ripper I once had and stupidly sold, and the colour match one is so I canhave a tan colour looptail. Thatll then be a looptail in brown, one in tan, and one in baby blue - true se colours! [not to mention the polished one and whie one I have too. God i need help!]
Top work Dan, esp on the quad filler!
And I like it when I can see the rewelds on frames, really shows the frames true history to me.

I gotta say i took some bit's to Dan last week and he was swamped with frames then and i have worked for bike painters before and beleave me they dont have the patience and perfection Dan does and they charge stupid money. Dan you should be knighted mate, a true gent.  :daumenhoch:

it was two pack,  because of the filler in the top tube,  once a frame has body filler on it,

it can't be powdered,  the filler would bubble from the heat of the oven :daumenhoch:

generallee,
i cant believe you had paint work done without getting that weded mess sorted first  on the loop.
especially when your builds are as good as they are.
