Some pics of my track rims now they are fluro green.

After my rush job on the motorkhana rims the fluro green colour started growing on me. I went out and bought a litre of fluro green acrylic, white base, and clearcoat.

2 coats of white were laid down as a base help the fluro colour come out. Three 'double header' coats of the fluro green (now called giggle green, as that is generally the resulting noise heard when people see it on your wheels!) were laid down 10 minutes apart as per the instructions. This was followed by three 'double header' coats of clear and then a very light mist coat all 10 minutes apart.

I think they turned out allright.

I am now considering fluro green stripes down the side or big GT stripes over the top. The missus wants me to paint the splitter and wing fluro green as well. She is a woman though...
