Title: brute stem tarting up ,,,,,,lettering sorted
Post by: trasher on July 04, 2009, 11:02 AM

i got a brute stem off mr radman ,,that had been restored previously

but not to much standard ,looked like it had been touched up here and there with a black marker

so i thought fook it get the paint stripper and costic out  :crazy2:

i sent it to dan to be powdered ,(top job) then the only thought was the writing ,theres no way i could paint that with

my dt's ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

then i thought ,ill mask up ,and spray the red ,,then in the morning ill t-cut the lettering ,,,not a bad result me thinks

so there you have it guys the way to sort your lettering out on the brute stem ,,,,sorry if this has been mentioned before  :tickedoff:
