And yep Rick, been mulling over some designs this week.  I've got 3 all white freestylers as it is, fancy something a bit different.

yeah if you get the cans nice and warm the gas expands giving you a better pressure to paint with !!

They look well sweet, is it best to still go for the dozens of thin coats application rather than a few thicker ones?  I realise the thicker you go in one application, the more chance of a run

rick1970:
imo i'd say yes loads of thin coats and another tip when spray can is getting low stand on it <ie crush it > to increase pressure  :daumenhoch:
