Day 12:: Painted!

Today I was able to get the remaining coats of paint onto the frame. I spent about an hour last night putting on the painter's masking tape for my Serotta "sprint" paint design. I am so glad that I spent the time carefully cutting and wrapping the tape because when I removed it after painting today, the job was absolutely perfect! I am extremely happy with the results of this paint job. This picture makes the blue look a lot lighter than it really is. It is more of a navy blue. Granted, it is not professional powder coating, but for an under $100, recycled fixie conversion, it is fantastic. Let me know if you need any tips on how to paint yours :-)
