ok well I'm gonna try and paint a body up with rattle cans. First off what brand and in what order? ie. 1-clear 2-color 3-primer or whatever. also what should I use to make my color lines mask or tape? nothing special probably just a 2 color deal. never used a airbrush in my life so I'll try the shakemups.
primer u wash the body thats it warm soapy water, basically rattle cans blow imo the only decent ones are the pactra ones and the paint is usually pretty brittle and cracks after it dries. It doesnt always happen but ive seen it happen more with the cans than with waterbased paints. Back flourescent colors in white i like to back the whole thing in white when im done and lay down a few coats of rustoleum crystal clear enamel at the end to seal it all in
what about the tape?
3m blue or green painters tape FTW or parma fastape is great too

Yeah, I understand.....I was born and lived in ChiHts for 25 years before moving to Snootyville. I don't fit in around here. You can move the broke-ass uptown, but he'll still be a broke-ass.

All I know is that I have also seen it at picketed jobsites. How can you miss that giant rat?
