Two tone painting help.

Well the painting is done!! The machine looks great. I did mess up one tape line but it will be covered up by chrome. You can see just to the right of the bottle door opening the line slopes down a little. I cant believe I didn't see that. Oh well. I painte dthe red and clear coated today and it really looks nice. It does need buffed so I will do that in a few days. One piece of bad news. I had finished painting and everything was dry enough to handle so I wanted to move the coin door so I dould work in that area. Well It was hanging by a coat hanger and the coat hanger decided to give out as I was picking it up and the coin door did a face plant into the concrete floor. So I guess I will be mixing up some more red paint tomorrow. Oh well. Other than that I am really happy with how this turned out. This is my first machine to do all of the painting myself. not too bad.

Looks good Josh!! Sorry about the butter side down face plant.
Question: How does it work when painting assembled hinges. What tip is there to keep the paint from flaking when the door is opened?
Thanks!

This was the Rc machine. It is going to be Coke. I was going to do it as an Rc machine to keep for myself but then I snagged the VMC88 from Joey and changed my mind on keeping it. I need to recover the $$ spent on the 88 so I am going to put this one on ebay when it is done. I am hoping to make enough on this machine to restore the 88 and the C55 I am working on.

 to see it when it's done, also the 88 when thats done.
