candy apple paint
« on: March 07, 2008, 08:15 PM »
Hi, just wondering how you get candy apple paint done, I've got a chrome frame, is there anywhere you can buy translucent spray paints, or would it need a more specialist spray job, would that cost a lot?
Thanks ,
Fraz

if you want to do it yourself try this paint.



the head set cup was painted straight over the chrome. i've found the paint to be very durable and quite resistant to scratching off.
