Hello,
I usually use my airbrush without the back handle. Recently, I found my original handle which was in a box for years. So I started to clean it, but it took a life of its own.
Been cheap plastic, it was all scratched up. So I started by sanding it.
All of a sudden, it was covered in white automotive primer...
So I painted it a nice shade of blue, 1971 Chevrolet Mediterranean Blue
End of the story, right? Nope!
Made a stencil of flames. Then painted 2015 Corvette Laguna blue Metallic on top, and a small faded stripe of 2019 Corvette Sebring Orange at the bottom.
Scalefinishes 500 series clearcoat to seal it and bring that metallic to life!
TA-DA!
