Default New flame paint pics did it myself

I am painting my flhs myself. Base/clear black with blue and purple flames. I used all dupont products. The flames are Hot Hues colors. I still have to wet sand the clear. Got a little crap in it and some minor orange peel.

Looks great man.

Wanna step us through how you did it? I've never done flames. Only one color...

Looking good. Nice job. By the time you cut and buff it, it will look great.

Thanks for all the positive comments, I will do a step by step as I have pics of the whole process. Be patient I am buried at work and it will take a little time. I have the front fender, both side covers and bags already sprayed black and cleared. I have to apply the flames yet so I won't post a step by step until I am finished. Brad
