Today I used a Professional Automotive High Volume Low Pressure Spray Gun Kit to put the initial coat of British Racing Green, which is PPG's Delton (DBU 44524) Basecoat/Clearcoat paint system. The color looks beautiful and will really show off well with the rest of the trike. The spraygun was suprisingly easy to use, with VERY little overspray. I shot it with no runs. So tomorrow I will have to wet sand the paint to smooth it out, and either shoot it again, or clear coat it depending on how the paint looks. If it covered well, there will be no need for another coat, I can just seal it with a coat of clear. I am researching an artist to draw me a logo for the side of the fuel tank. I will put it on the tank and clear over it to seal it onto the tank.
