Paint my hardbags AKA NOT painting the wifes bike

Well done. See, that wasnt so bad.

 

WOW a finished paint project...I am amazed

 

if you want them glossy, wet sand with some 1200, and then buff them out..

here is my rattle can job i started on my track bike.

Wtf!!!!

So Like I stated earlier...I let the black area sit for 3 days and then I decided to shoot the silver area again....I taped and shot and when I pealed back the tape this is what I got on one bag.



but I am happy that it is only on one bag and not the other....Soooo tomorrow Ill sand that area down again. Go to Autozone and get green painters tape...( I think thats why this failed because I used Blue painters tape like you use in your house even though VFRHusband told me not to..but noooo I had to be a show off and prove him wrong...oh look at me..needing to re-tape/re-sand and re-shoot mr. hot shot....but then, I digress)

 

I've never had that happen with the blue tape(knock on wood) I usually let the paint drie about ten minutes then peel off the tape.......... green tape huh...I'll have to give it a try

You're gonna need more beer too

 

hmmm... Idk, maybe try just laying the edge down with the tape, and covering the rest with paper? seems to me ur just pushin' the tape down, and it's lifting the paint... maybe your paint and primer don't stick to each other well....
