    Hi guys,

    I've had my turbo seca on the road now since 2012, always knowing that I wanted it to look like this but in blue instead of red.

    Well I don't have enough circuits in my garage to run a good compressor and a supplied air respirator, so I went full rattle can, Rusty acrylic enamel, and 4 cans of SprayMax 2k Clear. Only regret is not spraying a 1k clear over the base so that I could scuff sand with 800 and not worry about going through before the 2k clear (did it in a few spots...no one will notice but I know exactly where they are :()

    Now to do the exhaust, there's A VHT flameproof satin clear that would look really nice over a black base:cool:

    Enjoy!

    and a REALLY steady hand :D.

    Those are vinyl stripes from Great Planes...used for model/RC airplanes. They laid down really nice and I cleared over them.
