Go to 9:30 and watch to 12:30 is what I want to do. What are they called? I have no idea how to search for them. |
"paint masking stickers"
I'd bet Joe Bob could make these for you. |
Masking Film - US Cutter
I have a vinyl cutter, and have used it for masking. Joe-bob would probably cut it. Also this, more for modelling and hand-cutting: https://www.amazon.com/Grafix-Frisket-Sheets-9-Inch-12-Inch/dp/B0065F1M0Q/ref=asc_df_B0065F1M0Q/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=167130062341&hvpos=&hvnetw= g&hvrand=11522787681201954038&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqm t=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9003743&hv targid=pla-332229737034&psc=1 |
My plan is to do just like the pic but with my company name on the bike. Peter, this is going on a Reynolds 853 frame build by a local garage builder over 20 yeas ago. I finally had it stripped and going to play with painting myself.
I am ok with a print on water transfer (I think that's what they are called) like the old models we use to build as kids, but have no clue how or where to begin? If they are, the Print itself needs to be UV resistant or proof? Is that even possible? My other alternative is to have some type of backward sticker like Dad911 suggested. Peel after painted. I am thinking rattle cans? You think it will hold up? Clear coat will be applied on top of the paint. |
Sorry, here's the pichttp://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1613293091.jpg

That's what you want, but your name instead of Torelli?
If so, I'm sure JB could do it in vinyl. |

Having said all that I loath using Two Pac. It's just generally difficult, storing paint is an issue even with a refrigerator and I'm never happy about how clean my spray gun is when it's all over. Also Two Pack is more likely to crack compared to acrylic lacquer or oven baked enamel. Acrylic Lacquer was the standard back when I was a teenager but you had to be very careful. Just super thin coats and then let them setup properly before apply the heavy top coats. The thinners in the acrylic lacquer is the issue and you had to minimise expose to the water slide decals. I've never done "backward sticker masking" but I've seen it done firsthand and the trick is knowing when to remove the masking. Too soon and you'll ruin the paint. Too late and you may not get crisp clean edges. |
Yep agree JB can make those. My wife has a little machine called a cricket that could cut them. In expensive gadget but probably not worth purchasing for a single job.

The bike in the video sure is beautiful.

Very cool but I’d be afraid to ride it...might get it dirty!

I want to do the same thing if we start to Cerakote bike frames

Use DuPont Imron, thin it appropriately, and when painting a bike you gotta hit it from 6 different directions to cover everything equally. Zinch-Chromate primer, followed by 6-10 coats of paint depending (fading colors, doing a candy apple finish, etc) Stickers get applied and then 2 layers of clear Imron over them. Be sure to consume lots of tequila while painting, and the occasional psilocybin mushroom. RIP Bill Kurke |
