Especially because I don't have a muscle build in the MBBO, but mostly because you are giving the Duplicolor Metalcast a shot; count me as SUBSCRIBED! 🤩

Hey @Pondo, a couple of things I found out about Metalcast paint when I used it. Basically, it is very thin, and translucent. The shininess of it comes from what is underneath the paint. My RaTs GaSs build (that I pictured above) was done on a frame, fenders, chainguard, that were entirely...

Got a great look to it @KJV brother! Nice work.

Wow! Nice work on this one!

I second that!

Good to see you back in it, @macncheese ! Cool frame to start with.

There are quite a few on Amazon that emulate that style pretty closely. Here's one example...

That rear rack is really cool! But I see you might be going a different route. What size are the wheels on this baby?

Hmmmm, there's a lot of blank space here for some creative graphic artist. But, #nobodycaresaboutsixthplace. 😆

Appa-RaT-ly there is a way to track the truck that actually delivers your packages on the USPS website. Can't navigate the package tracking, but the truck tracking surfaced this vehicle as being the one that delivered all the OddJob Award Certific-RaTs of Appreciation. Made the whole route...

Congrats to @SkyknightJohn , great scratch rat build!

Wow, haha! They really went to town on that package! And they talked me out if the padded envelope too. 🤣
