Re: First Build - King Hauler
well I jinxed myself by saying the body work was almost done.... I guess after I put this on I'll need to fill the holes in the roof!

Re: First Build - King Hauler
That's a lot of lights! I like lights. As for chrome vs paint depends in what else will be chrome. I like chrome but not overkill chrome.. Hard to say

Re: First Build - King Hauler
My first instinct would be to say paint it. When I look at it I think of Younggunz black Pete or John's roll off Pete. Both nice examples of painted visors and with the lights I think would look wicked

Re: First Build - King Hauler
Nice looking rig, Goose! I'm building a KH just like this one. How did you make the styrene boxes to house the headlights, and the buckets themselves? Thanks.

Re: First Build - King Hauler
The paint looks great. The masking really gave you some clean lines. What kind of tape did you use? I always seem to have problems with clean lines and bleed through. I had the best luck with Pactra masking tape!

Re: First Build - King Hauler
well, got a coat of clear on it, and some assembly done. will need to "tint" the windows, i thought they would be darker. i have a grill made but i need to get a new moisture trap for my compressor/airbrush before i can spray the chrome paint.
enjoy!

thanks! i actually used automotive pinstriping to mask the lines, i find 1/8 is the best for curves/bends. also then you put masking tape over the pinstriping to cover a larger area, make sure you pull the pinstriping before the paint is too dry, leaves a nice clean line!
