Thanks for the compliments.

Thanks.

When you order stuff from PorkChop BMX, they usually throw a sticker in with your goods. I recently ordered some hand grips and asked them if I could have a couple extra stickers. They gave me a some, but sadly they are all to large to put them where I plan.

Anyway, the rear fender has been yellowed:

It is waiting for the checkerboard stripe to be laid upon it.

Stick shifter--I think not.

Drag chute release--I think.

All I have to do is get a shifter...maybe I have one--must dig through stuff.

Tis true, that yellow paint seems to spread throughout the universe when I use it. It can not be controlled.

For me it's red, what is it about red spray paint that makes your arms sticky?

When you use red paint, it creates a high gravity area in your entire body. Your arms are sticky because they are exposed and the high gravity forces concentrate there. The paint will "jump" to all exposed parts of your body.

See what I mean:

Luckily for this guy, he was wearing a face mask and socks.*

Do not, I repeat, DO NOT, use red paint whilst totally naked. It creates a mess. It's a lightning rod kind of thing. It isn't pretty. Yep.

Looking slick, fantastic job on the checkers and the pinstriping...even if its just vinyl, looks great!

Thanks.

Checkerboard is paint, but if vinyl checkerboard is available in the right size I need in the future, I'd use it. Vinyl pinstripes look good and make pinstriping available to all who can't afford or do not have the ability to paint pinstripes themselves--a good deal all around.
