The painted sections were taped and papered
as shown here and sprayed with a high build primer to allow sanding to
a smooth surface. |

Dupont auto body pigments were applied
and coated with a clear-coat uv protection over both paint and bright work.
The green is a metal flake and looks nice with the white and natural colors. |

The non-skid surface was created by sprinkling
glass bead from a salt shaker over wet clear coat and then spraying again
to lock the bead onto the surface. Glass bead about the size of salt provides
a semi transparent surface for bright work. This is not nearly as nice
looking as without the glass bead as can be seen in this photo, but the
surface would be much to slipery with out it. Unfortunately my finishing
plan called for all the non-skid to be on bright surfaces. |
