Thanks guys...Resto info
I have been custom painting, bikes, motorcycles, cars and guitars on & off for 40 years.
I don't use filler unless absolutely necessary.
I use Nason 2K high build epoxy primer ( Nason is a 2 part primer)
I wet sand the primer with 600 the next day.
I then spray with single stage Dupont Centari, or PPG, what ever I have here
I spray with a very vintage DeVilbis siphon feed gun ( No HVLP for me)
I get my rivits from a company in Florida, I believe they are called Florida Fasteners,
They are actually threaded rivets with nuts. It gives you the exact appearance of the original rivits
without damaging the fenders.
* Also on this Huffy, I could not get the decals for the chainguard, so I hand lettered it.
I am a professional artist as an occupation ( My wife has what she calls a "real job" )
Here are a couple other of my bikes I restored, a '55 Columbia, and a '51 Higgins Color Flow
I also restore my seats & badges.
Thanks again for all of the nice comments....................Wayne
