    ^ that is really good to know!! I had not heard that before. I was thinking of doing a 2-tone dip on my bike, but was concerned about how I was going to make the intersection of the two colors work.....Tape, dip, tape, dip, etc just did not sound like a realistic solution. I will have to try this method out myself and report back!

    Good luck. That's the good things with stripes. You can completely change up your car with a can or 2. Compared to a whole car you have to take a small loan out for lol. Almost wish my car wasn't dipped I could be messing with stripes all the time.

    I pretty much shit myself when I saw this was a focus lol. You don't really see our cars "fixed up" to often. You did so great with your stripes... As far as mine goes, I was going to do either a black or white strip down the middle of the car and then also on the sides where that indent thing is. As far as rims go... Ive been told to do orange? Idk. Any suggestions with rim color?

    Hi Rick, good to know, other posts I've read say, remove stencil after each coat, reapply and spray again etc; etc;

    Regards DUKE
