| The powdercoat on the Bolt roughed up easily enough with the 3M pads... No need to prime... 3 light coats later... Pink perfection! | |

No pinky up, no tea, and I eat with my hands (Hate utensils!)
But there was a day when men could wear pink proudly, and strongly!
...of course the Mullet was haircut of choice. But there was a time! 
LOVE PINK

nimagu... | Haha, I would do it without hesitation, because my sickness has progressed far past Phase 3... I'm not even sure how much farther, probably somewhere around full-on vapetardation. 1atom12 is progressing nicely. Maybe we should make up some merit badges or something.
Useless fact: The color pink was used to signify masculinity about 100 years ago in the U.S. Male babies were celebrated with pink ribbons and other pink items.

| You know they do offer a DIY powder coating as well? But you have to bake the piece and gut the tube but it would look pretty cool. Im still debating on getting some vinyl over my LT. Just not sure if I can cut out these small holes for the button. | |

| why would you want to DIY powder coat..its a pain to try and control thickness and takes some special equipment to charge the paint..that orange peel look is actually caused by poor application. Professional done powder coating can look as good as a paint job done correctly. There seems to be a lot of misconception over powder coating being better then paint..

Sure DIY powder coating can be a pain but I have seen some people do it with amazing results. | |
