Awesome!
This frame has had a serious amount of work, all masking has been done by hand, we haven't used any lasers or points, just old fashioned hand masking. Paint has been laid on very thin so it will be durable. We've also used what's called a mixie blend lacquer so greasy hands won't ruin the matte look, it will just wash off.
Howard, it's been masked with low tack tape and surfaces protected, absolutely no paint in the BB area. Also used carbon specific primer on the forks. We use the same supplier as Mclaren do for their primers so it's top stuff which doesn't react with the epoxy
This will look great once it's done as the final picture was taken just before we sprayed the matte. it's going to look awesome against shiny parts..
