Thanks all y'all The canopy was real easy .I had always heard that you could tint Future so I got some Teal india ink and just added it full strenth. It worked out great.

Thanks y'all I'll get to go home on the 6th so I'll be back to work on this one.

[sotoolslinger]

I am back home and have gotten back to work on this one. I plan on having it look like a dark ,mettallic , patchwork with all the separate panes painted in these colors

The only way I could figure out how to do it precisely was to coat the entire AC in liquid masking


I will cut out and peel each panel I want a separate color ,paint then respray masking.


Thats what she looks like with a couple coats o mask dried over night.
On to painting

Yeah me too . Actually the liquid mask is really working out well. The most excellent Cthulhu gave me a car detailing spraygun that is super for doing large areas

[John Howling Mouse]

Liquid mask---cut---spray---re-apply liquid mask---cut next section---spray.....

Oh, I'm sooooo confused!   

[sotoolslinger]

Me too I am gonna have to start marking the panels to keep up with which ones I have already painted

[Eddie M.]

A great idea! It already looks like it was built with UFO technology, but this takes it over the top!!;D
