i.m planning on trying out a red candy rattle can paint on an alloy frame. gonna polish it first then paint it. it's a translucent paint so you can see through it. you can get a black candy too. have a look at this site.

I picked some stuff up from paul yesterday as mint as ever  :smitten: . He showed me some hard annoed stuff like gun metal Grey . Looks mint I'm gonna have some rims done in it ..    :daumenhoch:

He might be hard to reach the next few weeks he's going in hospital to have an op on his foot .  Said he might be off work for 2-3 weeks . His place is open but he won't be there .
Just in case any off you guys can't get hold of him  :daumenhoch:
