Timothy Knowles, a skilled automotive artist, took on a one-of-a-kind project for the SEMA Show, and the result left car enthusiasts stunned. After acquiring a vehicle from Devin White’s father, with White being the standout linebacker for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Knowles set out to create a true showpiece.
The transformation began with Forever Seal to ensure a strong, lasting foundation, followed by Slick Silver Metallic to add brilliance and depth under the custom color. The centerpiece of the project was Tamco’s Monaco Candy Concentrate, a striking shade that delivers unmatched vibrancy and a rich, candy-like finish. For consistency and smooth application, HR Reducers and CC3000 Candy Carrier were used throughout the painting process.
To lock in the look with long-lasting gloss and protection, Knowles finished the build with HC2105 Extra Slow High Solids Clearcoat, achieving a flawless, glass-like surface that glows under the lights.
The final result not only showcases Tamco’s premium products but also embodies the bold energy of the Buccaneers’ spirit, a project worthy of the SEMA stage.
