[mrbear]

bro....mean the color canot spray too thick izzit? u use one can or two can of spray?

* yup2.. not too thick.. not too thin.. make sure u spray nicely.. n also sand it after it dries. n also spray back. i do few layers. spray.. then let it dry.. then sand paper it. then wash n rinse it. let it dry n spray back!

Mine also DIY like Mr.Bear, after sometime the paint does chip off. It's like getting spots on the paint. I did apply heat resistant paint(silver) before spraying the red.


​

* mine now still ok. might be its still new. need to c the results after 2-3 months.

why i dont think of spraying heat resistant spray (black/silver). then spray on top of it red? mmmmmm mmmmmmmmmm :Not_Impressed: :retarded:

nice work la abg... thought i wanna diy my 4G93 head too.. but dont dare to take it off.. nanti tak ble pasang balik habis... n need to cover the engine from anything anot or juz leave it open like dat while we diy..

n really curious bout the heat resistant la.. wanna find a blue metallic, not those 2k type ones, but abit matt.. semi gloss.. never manage to found any yet.. mostly are matt black n silver..

n hope u post the updates for the paint job after constant driving n heat endurance.. thx brother bear..

* thankx bro. just a small easy work. hahaha..
u can take off ur head cover if u got enough tools. no worries!

u can cover ur head with newspaper. then close ur bonnet. nuthing will happen.

bout heat resistant. from all shops i went thru. heat resistant spray only available in black or silver. other than that is not available. ive seen lots of spray cans colors. till make my eyes blind.. :shocked: :shades_smile:

since DIY my head till now. seems all ok. no faded sports,no cracks n chips. might be its still new. need to c the results after 2-3 months perhaps??

enjoy ur DIY!!
