Rattle can paint job

[Bbrent]

So..... I bought a dameged tank from Motoredsports because I wanted to swap out tank before track days. I spent about 8 hours repairing, primering and painting the tank. I just put the tank decals on tonight. I stil need to do some touch up before I clearcoat.

Oh yeah. I plan on pinstripping around the white to clean up the edges of the white alittle. What do you guys think?

I've always thought the curves and lines of the tank were pretty awkward but kudos on making it work.  I agree, a bit of pinstriping will really make it pop.  How did you mask off the areas?  Clear coat in the future, or are you just going to stop while you're ahead ?  I've always been a big fan of rattle canning small jobs.  If you have the right area (clean) to do it in and the right kind of know-how, you can get some pretty spectacular results with a can of Krylon.

To mask off the tank I used 1/4" vinyl pinstipping tape. That was the only tape I could get to bend andtwist the way I needed it. So yeah. pinstripe and clearcoat today and hopefully slap it on my bike in a couple days.

I LIKE IT. 

I'll even say... "I like it better than the tri-color paint job".

I know..."To each their own", but I always thought the painted lines of the tri-color do not flow well with the shape of the tank.
