And my tins come off for a cost of fresh paint.

We are going with a custom color we made out of 4 diffrent House of Kolor Kandies. There will be no other bike that same color ANYWHERE. Cany wait getting giddy lol.. Good thing I bought the paint 2 months ago, or this would have to wait also.

I plan on doing a series on the paint job in pics. Like I said I Plan on it, but no promises. How ever I will have the finished bike posted on here..

The color is what we call "Kandy Wine"

it is a mix of 7 diffrent HOK Kandy colors in just the right amount to give it the perfrct look.. From aobut 10 feet away it looks black.. And depending on how the sun hits it, it has a deep red tone, or a purpleish tone.. Like i siad there will be no other bike ever painted this color. I have the formula for the paint and I aint giving it out lol.. All in all itsa not a lot of paint going on the bike. But had to buy a lot to get all the tones we needed for the shoot.

HOK is the only color I will spray. However i am not painting this one. My handy work is in flames, grafix, and murals. I have kind of gotten away from it lately but, never know I may do some stuff to my bike before we seal it all up in clear.

If you look at my pics I think i have some of some of my paint work. Cant remember if I deleted them or not.

Cant wait till this is done. I will have a turley one of a kind paint job.
