Want to change the colour of my alloys
« on: 04 May 2010, 22:37 »
i was wondering whats the most cheap and effective way of changing the colour of your alloys was?

Spray them? if so how easy is it to do?

Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

spray can is the way forward. Just need to prep the surface and lacquer if required.
If done right can look good.
