How come skis dont have the metal flake like comes on bass boats? Saw alot of really nice bass boats this weekend on a fishing trip and thought that it would be cool to have that glitter effect on my ski.
how come skis dont have much metal flake?

i dont see why you couldnt. but it would be a lot of glitter on a small space, since the ski is so small compared to a bass boat.

Go here and see what he's done. More metal flake than you can shake a stick at. He did it all himself:

I was going to do a large metal flake on my project but ended up just doing metallic because I wanted a solid color at a decent price. I think with some different solid colors and painted graphics it would like sweet. Kinda like what maros did.

I was going to do a really heavy metal flake gold paint but decided against it and went a different way. I think when I get a superjet I will do it then.

You can put metalflake in paint or gelcoat. Bass boats are gelcoated, I'm sure.

Whatever, both my skis are glitter boats. On my FX1 I used a small flake glitter. When I did the B1 I went bass boat style, I love it. When the sun is out the skis are blinging!
