or not , apparently....
so im painting my personal showcar.
im stressed as hell coz i only have two weeks which really isnt helping my decision making processat all and the theme i decided on apparently will look rubbish.
according to the paint company i use.
but as i want that look im stuck with it now.
so my cars getting a tiger theme mural on the front over black base will hopefully look cool, im all happy with that but the back of the car isnt looked at as much so i just need a custom paint that stands out . to go with my tiger theme i have my 2nd choice of paint which i have chosen to do base orange and as i have some rainbow flake i thought i shall put that over will look awesome. - paint company disagrees - they say its gonna look like sand in my paint. ...
my 1st choice (images pulled off google - not my work but wow its awesome i love this look! great work from a lowrider artist here) i really really wanted the low rider candy sparkle theme look. which im pretty sure is silver base, rainbow flake and them orange candy - but not knowing any low rider painters im not 100% the paint combination or process to apply it and the company still said adding the candy orange over it will look rubbish i doubted and though this could be an extremely expensive mistake. and went for my 2nd choice above and in my head im expecting to get this type of look (again not my work or image i pulled from google to reference what i thinking i can achieve).
instantly regretting getting base orange now but as the paint company should know their thing so im am completely doubting what this will look like.
the guy is really friendly he knows me and my car i have used them for paints for ages and i know he knows his paint stuff so i am completely doubting myself to stick with the sparkle orange theme. ops:
i have seen the orange metallic on cars (the company i uses say the dont do orange metallic as apparently even that looks rubbish )
i have seen pictures on google of orange with flake paint over
and i have seen the awesome low riders
all different applications and types of paint i know - but surely what im trying to do is some how achievable.
***completely regretting not ordering silver and the candy orange to have a go at the low rider look- i have only been off the phone 10 minutes and am completely disillusioned now as to getting my theme. ..
