Klein Attitude Repaint Repair

[Betty Barker]

Jon everybody knows that you love to paint Kleins. Maybe it`s a good idea spending some time in your garden painting some Kleins and make your customers happy. You dont need to prove yourself in this threat.

Im sure they will leave a good recommendation in this forum if they are happy with your service.

I like to go on with some pictures of my actual repaint stuff during the weekend. So personal I will be a happy guy if all of us try to think about a bit geniality.

Its no problem to say hey you are wrong or can you show the detailed way. But in the case you do the same job it is also nice to show the right one or in case the different one (maybe in your own threat).

Okay cool.

Regarding your little films...
Dont forget to wear eye protection when using solvents Martin.
The solvent is attracted to the eyes and can enter the body this way.

This has been a great thread and very interesting.
Although it has lost its way a little in recent pages.
Back on track now.

Do you use solvent based paint, or water based paint?

Do you also bake it after painting to help 'cure' (harden) the paint?

The same question is posted on your respective threads.

Keep up the good works guys.

 

[sylus]

if you've followed the thread you will see both painters have been respectful of each other all the way through

I've followed the thread, that's not the impression I've formed

I have to say following this latest post..which is just one of many with sarcy undertones

I would have to agree with you mikeD

"Little films"? really?

As to the safety tips Jon, looking at Martins set up and work place I would have thought it was plainly obvious Martin knows what he is doing and was fully aware of safety requirements

To be honest I had hoped we could keep to the positives of Martins excellent work but it's very clear jon that with these childish digs, attempts of humour that are nothing more than poorly thinly disguised attacks from you towards a far superior painter ..that you have very little positive to offer within Martins thread

Being blunt Jon, there was no need for these continual stupid comments from you towards Martin given unlike many suppliers in RB, he has actually walked people through process's, showed all manner of work and generally been happy to accept questions. You can try and blame language again if you wish but your comments are easy to see for anyone.

Personally if the best you can do is try and sabotage a competitors thread with such churlish comments then you do your self a disservice and give a very poor reflection of you as a person and as a supplier of products to the RB community.

Martin I'm sorry but if Jons going to continually try and have your positive thread sabotaged for his own ends then I'm out because your work deserves better.

The fork, MC1 and frame is ready primered.

At first some answers:

Do you use solvent based paint, or water based paint?

My answer from page two:
Some colors are waterbased and some not, depending on the price for the pigment and paintig system. I use a colored solution i get direct from a chemical company. It`s possible to mix it in conventional systems or in waterbased systems.

Do you also bake it after painting to help 'cure' (harden) the paint?

We heat up the paint booth after the alpplication of primer or clear coat. For waterbase you need a blower in the cabin to fasten up the drying with air.

Baking begins at 200/220 degrees. So I think its not the right word. Its enough to use 60 to 80 degrees for a wet paint application.

Back to the frame:

From left ro right: some primered and prepared forks on top the strata; an old MC1 and the new painted yellow one; a test tube; some screen printed decals and some colour.

The MC1 is refinished but the decal is missing. To get the decal on you can use two ways. You have the screen printed decal to apply on or in case you have no decal you can spray on the decal direct on the MC1.

Using the test tube i like to show you the application.

That doesn't sound sarcastic at all to me. They are little films which he has made, and Jon is mentioning something which may help him stay safe. If Jon wasn't concerned (ie he saw it was safe) he wouldn't need to mention it.

I think you are reading what you want to Sylus, just leave it alone!

I think Jon will show us during the next days in his threat pictures of his professional paint booth inkluding the ink-mist extraction, breathing and eye protection where he does his dust free and perfect work he is known for to show you how paint a cycleframe save and correct.

Why dont you tell me what you really think of me Martin and get youself banned from another forum?
