When I got to preview them in the garage, they were 15 feet apart and looked identical to me, didn't even notice they were quite different.:baby:


The fun part is when you hit the gas on what you think is the "Novice" ski and it is actually the "expert" ski. The power difference between the two is quite different. I have only done that a few times. Wakes you up pretty quick.

The colors were put on with a cheap Husky paint gun and a compressor.
I used an Iwata HP-C for the airbrushed stuff.
The clear was layed on with a Accuspray HVLP.

It all adds up real fast...
I suppose it all depends on what your expectations for the final piece are.
 
I told daylight I would get him some pics when I had the skis complete .
I had some delays with a rrp pole bracket that the ups guy lost .I will have both completed soon then I will get pics up .

Do you find the paint sticks okay to the plastic gas cap and filler?
I have been debating whether to shave mine or just paint it to match my paint scheme.

It sticks "ok"
I make sure the plastic parts are scuffed, super clean, and degreased.
The gas caps I usually just hit with the epoxy primer. Plastic nose pieces and visors get hit with an adheasion promoter then epoxy primer then paint then clear with flex additive.
