Spray Paint

[Norm Deguerre x2]

About time to get my Shop open for the year ..

Anyone here do this stuff ??
I have 4 motorcycle tanks to get done this month
One is a Candy Red which will be challenging
Esp since I haven't touched a spray gun since last October, can't afford to heat the shop just got occasional work
I will post a pic when done
