- HR398 and layout flames with ProBand Fineline 1/8” green tape.
- Mask around flames with Autographix masking tape.
Step 4
- Using 1/16” tape, layout freehand pinstripe designs.
Step 5
- Carefully cover flames and outlines with mask
Step 6
- Spray background with a blend of Candy Black (top), Candy Violette (middle) and Candy Pearl SoCal Blue.
- After applying 2 or 3 coats of the black and blue, pull the 1/16” tape to reveal the freehand stripes and tint them with the candies to the desired color.
- Finally, pull all masking from flames and surrounding pinstripes.
