Once upon a time, I saw a black car (at a show I think...)

the car was (gloss) black, and the flames were a matte black - An excellent look IMO.

I've seen more than a couple types of flames, red/orange/ curvey or linear...you could probably google image search up what you like and then just emulate that yourself.


You'll probably want to go finer than 220 grit for painting, I am used to hearing about guys with 1600 and 2400 grit paper for making their paint look good, but then again, I'm not sure if this would help a rattle-can job.

If the truck is worth keeping, spend the $300 on an air compressor and cheesy water/oil seperator (harbor freight is your friend here =) or not. Air guns are not that eggspensive once you have the air. This opens up your options greatly.
