Andre Breaux took motorcycle customization to the next level with a sleek and durable finish using Tamco Paint’s Smoke Metallic. This bold color gave the bike a refined and modern look, perfectly complementing its aggressive styling.
The process began with proper surface preparation, starting with HR397W Waterbourne Wax & Grease Remover followed by HR398 Final Wipe to ensure a clean, contaminant-free base. Andre then applied HP5311 Black DTM (Direct to Metal) Primer Kit, creating a solid foundation and depth for the metallic finish. Once primed, he laid down the rich tones of Smoke Metallic, giving the motorcycle its striking character. To protect the color and enhance the gloss, he finished the project with multiple coats of HC2104 High Solids Clearcoat, activated with HR Reducers for a smooth and flawless flow.
The result is a motorcycle that not only turns heads with its look but also stands up to the road with long-lasting durability.
