E-wheel finally in paint

Post by MP&C »

Just got an apprentice started at the shop a couple weeks ago, so one of the first things on the to-do list was prepping the English wheel for paint. It's been like this for over three years now....

Sprayed it this past Wednesday night using some leftover Pavo Purple I had from a m/c paint job, just to give it some metallic. Finally got it all back together today. Where it may look blue in the pictures, it's about as close as you can get to plum crazy...
