Looks awesome
Don't coat the front frame. It matches the engine and complements the white walls.
Black, Red, White/Silver is a good color scheme

U ended up using plastidip?? How's it hold up?? Was thinking on using it quick fast on my second building just to get it up and running for the summer? Then powder next winter.

How many cans u use?

it's definitely VERY fragile/sensitive. but it was 6/can and i only used one can (not even the whole thing) so it's expected, plus you can peel it right off whenever you need to. i plan on doing something more permanent whenever my tires get low.

a coat of spray on clear might help it hold up? :meh:

I say do the front frame. I'd like to see a gas cap on this thing too quit slacking!

i don't think plastidip would hold up on the frame...that will come in time, like i said i plan on painting by the end of the year. the summer if i do well

tell Composimo to answer his PMs, gas cap is on my order list for him!

Ive painted my front frame with it a couple of months ago, IMO, its only sensitive or fragile while youre painting with it and its uncured...mine is holding up nicely without a blem.
Id even go as far as to recommend it to any and everybody...Imma keep a can of this on hand for multiple uses!
And besides...if youre second guessing the idea, it peels right off if you fail or change your mind. Youre only out $6-$10 for the can. :meh:

To me it looks like you either got too close or too hasty...you may have even tried to fix some kind of debris issue.
I had a small issue like that, where I tried to fix it, it began to spiral out of control, but then I just started spraying more and from further away until it leveled out.

This. How long have you waited?

Looks great with the black wheels...mmm, and I still think you should paint the front frame black.

you sir, are a psychic. i'm trying the light layering now, if that doesn't work, i'll just pull it off and start over. i'm impatient, how long did you wait on it to cure? if i do it again i'll wait for a day when i have more time and don't have to work at 6. lol

See if you can cut out around it, if you pull its gonna spiral out of control, I used the back of a razor blade(carefully) but I wsnt doing this over a BADASS wheel either.

I sprayed mine after work, waited like 3 hours and reassembled it...Im pretty sure I went for a test ride, but by the next day it was 100%...after a few days I gave up on the idea it was fragile or delicate.

Do the frame, do the frame, do the frame!!!
