FireArt & Chopper
Yo Chopper, I’ve been sketching a motorcycle that looks like it’s breathing fire—think bold reds, oranges, and a splash of electric blue. Got any grease‑proof paint tricks to make it glow on the road?
Sure thing. Start with a good prep – clean the frame, sand the surface, wipe it down. Then lay down a primer that’s made for metal or bike paint; it’ll keep the colors from flaking off when you’re spraying it. After the primer dries, apply two coats of a high‑gloss, heat‑resistant motorcycle paint in the colors you want – reds and oranges for the main body, and a small dash of electric blue for accents. Finish with a clear coat that’s rated for UV and oil resistance. If you’re really looking for something that lasts through grease and grit, wrap the clear coat in a thin ceramic layer. Keep each layer thin, let it cure properly, and you’ll have a bike that sticks around even when the engine’s smoking up.
