need a painter - 12-03-2006, 12:06 PM

hey all, i need some one who paints car (1:1) that can do a quick project for me. I work at sega gameworks and made an upgrade for a game. we have some air hockey tables that had these super crappy plastic leg covers that would be broken after a busy weekend. I got tired of having to order legs every week! so i made some steel ones! its 1/8" thick and for all four corners id say its about the same coverage it would take to do the hood of a car. I want to prime and paint and clear coat the legs. i need it kind of quick so please respond if you or someone you know is intrested. thanks!!

ps if any one wants to see the legs come by gameworks its in the streets of woodfield next to the theater. they are pretty pimp!!


Same 'ol Fun!

When not just rattle-can them? Or do they need to be a specific color?

If you could find a shop to shoot them with Imron. It's polyurethane aircraft paint. Tougher than nails, but very nasty to work with. Some truck painting shops use it for 18 wheeler trucks.

If your looking for them to be durable then have it powdercoated. It's way stronger than regular paint.


Do not go gentle into that good night, Old age should burn and rave at close of day; Rage, rage against the dying of the light. Though wise men at their end know dark is right, Because their words had forked no lightning they Do not go gentle into that good night. Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay, Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Its tuff stuff it will turn cardboard into floor tile. What is does is bonds to the steel preventing rust, knicks, scraches, and chipping. I've seen it used on bumpers for Jeeps and at work we used it to coat the water tank of our engine. I think you can get it at harbor freight.
