[@pandarouge3612]

Thx for the tutorial. If I may: in case you would like to add some lettering and logos to look like a genuine out of the factory bicycle, you can buy all kind of stickers (more or less genuine) or make your own, but what is important to know is to stick them on the dry-hard paint job, and to clear-coat on TOP of them. That way, the stickers are protected and won’t peel off ! Thin stickers are better than heavy thick ones for that purpose. Enjoy !

Does the type of paint differ for a mountain bike?

[@FreestyleNow]

as we all know mountain bikes are just as rad as every bike. and have two wheels means freedom and the ability to get rad. hope you get on your bike and roll into freedom. as for the paint, nope its all the same and will work on any bike. get some cans and make the magic happen. hope your new paint job is rad

[@starmangarine]

Hi, you're so funny and I liked this tutorial! I need help right now, I painted my bike light pink and when I painted clear coat, it darkened a bit. I am aware that it's supposed to darken, so I bought more clear coat to even it out. However, when I sprayed more clear coat to the light pink areas, it won't even out anymore. What do you think is the solution for this? I hope you reply, thanks!

[@FreestyleNow]

Yeah sorry to hear that happened. it might have had something to do with the clear coat it self. that batch of paint might have been defective or has something in it the other can did not. A solution wold be to sand it back to the pink paint and then give it a another coat of pink. Then try to clear coat again. Be sure you get the same clear coat batch numbers. Spray something with the pink for a test then clear coat it to see if it changes.

[@edwardjski]

[@FreestyleNow]

@@edwardjski thank you, we employed many script writers to assist in the task. some of them drank large volumes of water during the process but they all came through with the script. after trying to make it work we ended up making paper aeroplanes out of it and just asked our aunty to add their words over the video

How much time it will take to apply next coat. It would be ok to apply clear coat after dry the color coat.

[@FreestyleNow]

Thank you for your comment, the next coat should not take long to apply. A quick sand down and apply the colour. Maybe at the most 20 minutes. Yes apply the clear coat after the colour coat has dried, but be sure to only give the slightest sand down with the wet sand worn out sandpaper. You dont want to sand off the colour but you need to give the colour coat some grip for the clear coat to hold onto. Good luck

[@FreestyleNow]

[@robertlund5694]

You could just sand down the original coating and use normal primer and paint if you wanted the job done quicker , it ll work even with powdercoat.

[@FreestyleNow]

Sure you can sand down the old paint but if it has lots of chips you would see these under the new coat of paint. yes powder coat is a great option but some may not be able to afford that cost or some would prefer a custom colour, which is what we did in this video.

The clear coat primary role is to help protect the paint from scratches and scuff marks. It add a layer of protection. Yes it can also help to have the finish shine level you require

The second sanding is to remove any imperfections that may be after the first coat. Dust partials, small runs in the paint and such. It gives the final finish a better finish.
