This technique saves any clothing from overspray & feels good on a day like it was today  :daumenhoch:

Don't do any oven pride work like this though !  :LolLolLolLol:

it's all in the prep for the final finish, on tubular work i just flood it with primer,

a couple of good wet coats and you've built up enough thicknes to flat the hell

out of it till it's smooth as silk then a couple of top coats and it should look as

smooth and sweet :daumenhoch:

ps.. dont worry about runs in the primer, look at it as thicker paint and it will fill

any marks once you've flatted it out  ;)
