i jus painted my blaster. i didn't do anything radical.

i painted the frame red as well as the bars and the bumper.

i painted the fenders, grab bar, ect. ect. everything else black.

it turned out really good.

I used to do most if not all of my atv work at my freinds which had EVERYTHING.His whole family was nto racing atvs so they had tonws of stuff for customizing and they painted theres also so they had all the spray guns and stuff,Best you can buy.He moved about a month ago so i can use the great equipment anymore and i dont have that great of stuff just stuff that most ppl can buy fairly easy.i use a simple spray gun bought from ummmmm some store around here and i mix the paints myself so i get the color i want.Once ya get the tank sanded all i have to worry about is painting a coat letting it dry painting another coat letting it dry etc etc etc. I came up woth the idea of using chains a min ago.i was thinking of having it look like the tank was wrapped in chains and just have a few chains going diffrent dirrections on the fenders.Think this idea would look good and what color would the base be?

look around there, kamileon kolors would be awesome, or the full spectrum color (don't know name) or you could do glow in the dark clear (not sure who its made by)
