Kribman Posted January 14, 2008 Report Share Posted January 14, 2008 Heres a bluegie crank I just finished. I know that there was a little bit of splatter, and i was wondering if I should water down the paint, or if that means its too thin. comment please Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pikeman Posted January 15, 2008 Report Share Posted January 15, 2008 Very interesting "rusty" paint job, although it seems that you had a paint problem I think you should give it a go like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kribman Posted January 15, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2008 single action, makes everything a pain in the butt! thanks for the advice, I'll check for bends or splits in the needle and get back to you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
captsully18 Posted January 15, 2008 Report Share Posted January 15, 2008 Kribman, I also suggest that you have your paint mixed thoroughly. I had a problem with paint splatter for a time and found that my Creatix was not mixed enough before painting with it. Started shaking for 2-3 min. and have not had that problem since. Don't know if you are using acrylics or not. Oh well, just my .02. God luck to you. David Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
