I have a Yamaha Sport bike that I want to "paint" I’ve got an air compressor and I’m looking to get an airbrush (btw any advice on where to pick one up on the internet would be greatly appreciated) Vinyls are a bitch to put on, so I was thinking that airbrush might be easier to do. (Nothing way to complex I have little experience) So which is the best?
Enter MISSIONSPECCAMO.COM: the Official and Certified DuraCoater of The Nutnfancy Project. Your knives, guns, flashlights, and other gear can be more awesome if they’re the right color. Often though, custom colorations in these items will add extreme costs if they come that way from the manufacturer (like custom shop Springfield 1911s). DuraCoat has been my answer to this problem for years and a professionally-applied DC finish that will exponentially increase the 2nd type of cool, resale value, and pride of ownership of your item. Once in hand, you will understand the attraction. And with DuraCoat it really doesn’t matter what color/finish your gun currently has because you can change it…with a permanent, hard-wearing finish that looks insanely cool. Buy whatever color gun or knife you want, then change it. Proven after many testing expeditions in TNP, DuraCoat is the go-to solution on much of TNP gear. It unlocks amazing camo capabilities and breaks up the obvious black outline of knives and guns and other gear that at times you may want to keep hidden (like in-theater combat operations). Other benefits have emerged as well: DuraCoat provides greater rust resistance, makes the gun resist sun heat better(in light colors), and when applied correctly it lasts the life of the item. It terms of camouflage effectiveness, item coverage, handsome looks, and longevity, it dominates the field expedient method of painting an item (which sucks; I use it on exactly zero of my guns …
Construction, destruction, and clean-up at the future home of Art 101. This week brought us: Frank learning that he can spray cement on the basement wall through an air compressor powered gun & hopper. Scraping dried printers ink off the downstairs landing. Pulling down wood from the upstairs ceiling with the +4 Hammer of Destruction. Waiting for dry wall delivery all day, as the clouds grew heavier and darker, and it poured massive rain just after the delivery men got the dry wall inside the garage door. The last major land fill load, bringing our total garbage weight to 8000 lbs! Driving to Ankeny to buy 92 concrete blocks and returning to Knoxville to unload them. Almost finishing the gutters. The start of building wall frames to separate the work & gallery areas. The completion of our Art 101 logo by Tanner Saltzman. And More………
Paint is a quick way to get the color you want on your gun and lots of troops just shoot their gun with some Krylon and call it good. But it’s not durable and most paints wear quickly. Enter DuraCoat by Lauer Weaponry in Wisconsin. They make a huge variety of durable epoxy finishes for guns that promise to wear extremely well. Moreover YOU, yes YOU, can even apply it. This is a quick video showing my application of “Stone” color DuraCoat to a Remington 700P .300WM rifle after appropriate preparation. The DuraCoat “Level II Starter Kit” includes an airbrush, air hose and couplings, 15 oz propellant can (which didn’t work well for me… had to use hobby air compressor for good results), mixing bottle, color bottle, mask, gloves, measuring spoons, 2 oz reducer, 1 oz TruLube (not used), and good instructions. Surface preparation is the most time consuming task; you’ll need to rough up smooth surfaces for preparation (Lauer also sells metal prep liquids which I feel are unnecessary). Make sure you do this in a ventilated area as shown. Results are impressive and I suspect I will be using their camo stencil kits in the future. Downsides are more expense (but much cheaper than other finishes like Robar’s NP3), more work than painting and it might be hard to relate the catalog color to your desired shade (mine was lighter than depicted)./////////////Nutnfancy Initial Likeability Scale: 9 out of 10

I just sold my 1998 Lincoln Navigator for 00. It had 150,000 miles on it, the 4 wheel drive went out, none of the interior lights worked, the electronic direction (NSEW) thingy was stuck on SW, the paint was scratched in several places, including a key scratch from end to end and two dents from baseballs. The interior was ok except the carpet had a few stains and the back seat console had a "chewed" looking place in the leather approx 4 inches across and one of the rear speakers was busted. The air ride compressor had been changed , but other than that, no real big problems. On the other hand, the A/C was still ice cold, and it had good tires and it got me where I wanted to go. Did I do ok on that sale or did I cheat myself. I have no way to gauge.
Also check engine light and ABS lights were on.
