After spraying the basecoat, your graphics, stripes or flame job is applied, normally leaving a hard edge. This is the first 4 layers of the paint job.

When clearing over the graphics or flame job, the clear coat follows the contour of the surface, thus still leaving an edge, however it is much softer after its been polished. This is usually about the 8 th layer of paint on the bike.

For our premium paint jobs, we bypass the wet sanding, and machine sand the surface down to a flat finish. 3 to 4 coats of clear coating is applied thus making the total coats of paint up to 12 layers. The surface is then wet sanded, buffed and polished, giving you the ultimate paint job. The extra coating will give more protection and depth of color, and also the surface of your bike will be as smooth as ice.

This whole process of an excellent paint job requires perfect timing and professional experience. If the paint is too dry when adding extra clear coats it may flake and crack under exposure to the elements. If the paint is too wet, it will run and ripple when went when drying the surface may also wrinkle or become rough. All our premium paint job are of the highest quality and perfectly finished to ensure a super smooth finish.
