Wow! That looks amazing! I'm really impressed with the paintwork. Did you use spraypaint or regular paint?
ReplyDeleteMargaret
Yeah, well, about the paint. I used rattle-can spray paint from the local hardware store, topped off with clear coat. I am not totally happy with the durability of the paint, it seems to knick rather easily. I probably won't paint a bike again myself, but hey, you don't know until you try, do you?
