I got hold of a pair of great conditioned DX's in silver. I sprayed them with red glass paint and it came out well. I put the lacquer on them and the lacquer has sent the paint weird. Looks like it has veins in it! Gutted cos i gotta do it again now and it was a mission getting it just right.

Has anyone got a pic of some NOS red ones so i can see the colour? I have never seen the red DX's.

CHEERS NICK  ;)

Nic, your better off using the red rear light tint spray for cars. that glass paint is water based the minit lacquer goes near it it will disolve it,also i found with the glass paint it gets tacky when warm.  :daumenhoch:
