I got rid all the orange peel at the end so it’s super smooth

It turned out really durable I used a 2k clear coat which has a hardener so it’s really durable but you have to wear a mask cause 2k clear coat is really toxic.

I’m pretty proud of it this is my 4th bike I’ve painted and I’m only 15 and I had minimal gear to create this

This. And if you are 15 you have a good future. In university, my neighbor airbrushed for fun. At one point he was painting cars for side cash. Probably bought alot of his beer while he was a student.
A good sprayer can put himself through college with that work and start a post-grad career debt free.

Great job! Nice to see someone your age taking on a project like that. Stepping out of the box and going purple was a great idea. Keep up the good work and don’t let anyone discourage you from doing things that they are too scared to attempt.

6 hours of sanding then use a plastic bag the. Spray paint dab the plastic bag onto the frame it creates a marbled effect then use a tinted clear coat to turn it anodized purple. After u let that dry the next step is to use a 2k clear coat let it dry sand it smooth then use a second clear coat then your done.
