idea's on paint

[bobbyf]

Hey i am going to paint one of my scooters soon but i dont know what color to paint it....any idea's on a nice paint job or anyhitng??? or any tips on painting it ???

Hmm , black is very very common. Think about what clothes you often wear. If its like red and then you paint your scooter green , it will look ugly. Black is common used because it is the best colour to match with anything.If you want to be special and not so common, try something else like pink or yellow or brown or something.

You can also not paint it but make it look nice. I have my scooter's neck painted black with yellow polka dots all over. You can try that too like a stock silver bar with black polka dots.

You can take some black tape or whatever and tape round those bars for fun or something. Up to you.

Good luck with painting it and make sure , if you paint it , have lots of patients. I had none and ugly paint job.

Checks would look pretty cool.

Also before you apply the paint, Sand it Down. also use laquer so it doesnt chip as easy

do something that reflects your personality, like if your bright and crazy you could do light colors. if your quiet and mysterious you could do dark colors. just go with your gut, and for the actual painting, i can't help you there, sorry.

thanks alot...but should i use primer before or will it even matter ???

if your using razor bars, it will chip anyways, unless they arent annodized
