Got done Painting My Instrument Cluster
1 Attachment(s)
I got bored and decided to paint my spare 1982 300D Needles with Fluorescent Orange paint. , the paint that i got is made for an airbush because of it's light viscosity and it goes on nicely, i did 4 coats of paint on this cluster, next up painting my 300SD Needles!!! Anyways do you think Fluorescent Red is better?
|
well done. Looks good. I assume you had to remove the needles?
|
Looks very nice!! I can't imagine going any more red than that.
|
Looks good! Clean job. Now you just need a silver button.:)
|
What did you glue the light covers back on with?
|
Actually i did not remove any needle, i took each segment out and take a small paper and double fold and slide it under each needle, this is a 4 coat paint took me 4 hrs because i had to dry each coat at lease 1 hour, Sliver button is missing and junk yard wants $10 for all 3 (dose not want to sell one piece :( ), i did not glue it back because its an extra cluster that i have, i think cement glue would work great for permanent seal or use elm glue for temporary ( just in case you want to remove the cover again)
|
Looks Great!
(Actually looks better than "Brand New")
|
i'll have to do that to my 79 300sd needles i can't see the time at a glance while driving. what paint/color did you use
|
I used Flurosent Orange that is made for an airbursh used a Brush size 0 for touch up 4 coats of paint and Dry each coat for 1 hour used small peices of paper, slide it under each needle and paint, if you want to paint it is best if you take each segment out from the back and paint therefore you dont have to take out the Front plastic cover and glue it back trust me is a mess to glue those things back... Also i am going to try to pain the inside yellow line...

So, you went to the trouble of adding/editing 9 little black boxes to block whatever is written on the pieces of paper surrounding the computer area, but you left the deodorant on the right..guard?:P |
