I also see there are some dents on your frame, did you somehow smooth it out first before you painted the frame?

FuzzyRyder

Those aren't dents, they are put there for sprocket clearance.

It looks good. I'm not much for whitewall tires though unless they're on a vintage.

i like my paintjobs to last and i stated before i dont "ride"

What do you mean status thing?
whitewalls on BMXs has always been a status thing in my neighborhood before i was born. if you got 100 spokes on it your were higher on the ladder not so much anymore since you can get 100 spokes for around 120$ back they they sold for around 200$.

Weed does not suck, cigarrettes do.

So does weed.

Not at all, have you even tried it...

Weed is kinda awesome.

But back on topic. If i wanted to do this kind of paint job in my garage with some store bought cheap crap in cans, how would I go about doing so? Will any old paint remover do? Will any old metal paint work? Where do I start?

I have though and I don't like it either. I would rather smoke a cigarette. To each their own.

Regardless I think the paint job is pretty sick, esp because it is quality work. I bet that up the resale value to the right person by a bunch.

its not as bad as the media portray it to be

FuzzyRyder
05-06-09, 12:17 PM
It's not bad at all! cigarrettes are about 400X more toxic and harmful to your body.

I know a couple guys who smoked tons of weed and sometimes they will start a sentence then

FuzzyRyder
05-06-09, 06:31 PM
That has nothing to do with it unless they are 24/7 burnouts. There is really no lasting long term negative effects, unlike cigarrettes.
