Hi,

end of last year I finished 2 Voodoo and 1 Henseleit TDR canopys.

@breath rc i like that design

what color is the windshield?

breathe rc · 01-27-2012, 10:44 AM

Thanks WeedWacker. That color is a pearl copper over white bc, and black shading around the edges, and the Align lettering.

WOW dude, that's awesome work.. did you do that airbrushing?

I have a cool idea for a canopy, I'll be looking for someone (and a price) to do it..

Thanks. Yes I did the airbrushing. Always trying to think outside of the box.
PM me, and let me know what idea you have, and I can give you dome pricing.

Thanks

got myself a vinyl cutter! woohoo! go roland!
time to get creative , can do much more with paint now.

your gonna dig it. i haven't bought fineline tape in 10 years, cut it out of vinyl, any width, to a point, rounded edges, whatever. the trick is finding one that deals with your solvents without loosing it's adhesive

Got my new Synergy N5c canopy!!

yeh , no worries there! i use water based stuff.

jsut when your laying the clear , you have to do a fine tack coat , then another slightly heavier tack coat.before blastin' it to a glass finish.

R30 done with Du Pont ChromaBase 2 stage base-clear automotive paints. Hope it withstands the nitro!

The one red canopy shown is really nice one.

breathe rc · 07-26-2012, 06:27 PM

Not sure if the "Align" graffiti was a good ideal or not. Looking for input on whether to keep it, or lose it. I will appreciate all feedback. Thanks

Lose it...

breathe rc · 07-27-2012, 10:14 PM

Thanks MK, I was thinking the same, but sometimes it looks good to me, and others I don't like it. Plus I figure, see how others feel before bothering to redo it. Thanks for the input.
