Spraying Frames.

[G-baby158]

Hi, i have a zona zip and need to know how hard it would be to spray it, my uncle finks its going to be hard but i want to know your opinion, i know some one i think his name is Dan has sprayed his loads of times.

And how would i take the bash plate holders off the frame and make the hole where the seat post would go bigger (if you get what i mean).

you can't take the plate holders off, there welded on put some tape over the threads to protect them from paint + go nuts. why would you want to make the seat triangle bit bigger? use an angle grinder or a hacksaw or dremel etc. as for painting you'll need to:

strip the whole thing down to frame with bb+headset + tape over threads.

nitromorse off any existing paint.

lightly sand the frame to make pain stick better.

prime it [base coat of paint in black or white, depending on how bright you want the finish to be]

spray it your colour

laquer if you feel the need.

if your hardcore you can look up making a heater for your frame to really set the paint.
