Re: Project Blue Belle
Now its had a couple of days to dry I have to say I am fairly pleased with how this has turned out covered in the hammerite. Looks a whole lot cleaner.

Re: Project Blue Belle
Today in the south of england this happened
YES that's right. The sun came out and looks to be staying today.
So I decided to paint the Swingarm. I had initially intended to powder coat it. However I painted the frame satin black and wanted it a perfect match. Also only a minimal amount of the Swingarm is seen to I wanted to minimise cost and effort with it.
Seems ok. Pretty much dry. Should look fine but needs to cure

Didn't even realise what it was!
Didn't paint the bit underneath as I needed somewhere to hold it.
Shortly after this pic was taken it rained!!!

Re: Project Blue Belle
hahaha also you need to leave a couple of areas unpainted, where the rear subframe bolts to the main frame, it's to make sure you get a good earth on the electrickery.... 
HEY YOU GUYS!!!!!!
