Thank you Professor Czech!
One question...what pressure do you spray at when you are doing larger areas?
Custom Bodies by Czech-it-Out Graphics - kevinF - 07-13-2006
wow......nice write up mike also nice bodies.
yeah umm, so how do you do it?? lol........looks very hard and confusing to do. I guess you need a lot of patience
i thikn ill let you be the painter. lol
Custom Bodies by Czech-it-Out Graphics - Czech-it-Out Graphics - 07-13-2006
lol Dave, i usually spray at 35-40 for normal sections, large sections of white i crank it up to 50

Thanks. I guess I'll hook up to the Big Sears Compressor in the garage and paint before winter hits again! My indoor Paasche D compressor only hits 30 psi or so.

i like the big compressors they are loud when they kick on but they hardly kick on lol

Yeah mines got a BIG tank on it with a 2hp motor that's wired for 220v..so it lives in the garage. Works great painting real cars, too.
Custom Bodies by Czech-it-Out Graphics - Czech-it-Out Graphics - 07-13-2006
nice lol

Wow, Mike. That is a great write up.
A couple questions.
Do you put the templates of the design inside the body and "trace" it or do you just do it freehand?
And is there a specific reason you use the alcohol to remove the sharpie?

I am using a big air compressor in my garage. I think I am going to have to pick up a small one to paint in the winter.

ya i put the templates inside and trace it, I drew them out the first time i did the body on the body first, then traced that onto paper which i saved.
i use alcohol on the body cuz thats the only thing that gets the marker off lol
Custom Bodies by Czech-it-Out Graphics - Czech-it-Out Graphics - 07-13-2006
the one i got is nice 40$
Custom Bodies by Czech-it-Out Graphics - UE-Maxx - 07-13-2006
I wouldnt' be able to draw that without making a mistake on the body.
What I meant to try and ask is that is there a specific reason you take the sharpie off?
Custom Bodies by Czech-it-Out Graphics - Czech-it-Out Graphics - 07-13-2006
ya cuz after i cut the first line it simplifies the design, just like i said it was important to make a fine line the first time, to trace the marker line, now when u do the pinstriping u only have one cut line to look at as opposed to the cut line and the marker line
Custom Bodies by Czech-it-Out Graphics - UE-Maxx - 07-13-2006
Ok thanks a lot.
Custom Bodies by Czech-it-Out Graphics - Czech-it-Out Graphics - 07-13-2006
no problem
Custom Bodies by Czech-it-Out Graphics - Ponch - 07-13-2006
Hey, how long do you wait inbetween coats of liquid mask? Thanks.
Oh and could you pretty please with a cherry on top scan up some of your templates for us to use? Or would that ruin your business lol...
Custom Bodies by Czech-it-Out Graphics - UE-Maxx - 07-13-2006
Draw your own. That is stealing his work.
Custom Bodies by Czech-it-Out Graphics - Czech-it-Out Graphics - 07-13-2006
lol ya i dont think i will be scanning any, feel free to copy them off my website but im not gonna post them on here lol
I wait till each coat is dry to the touch and u can see through it, it shouldnt look wet or milky blue at all
