Touched up my UDS

Postby ecto1 » Sat Jan 29, 2011 8:19 pm

I needed to repaint both my UDS I got one done today. Stripped it with a wire wheel primed and painted. I suck at painting but I am sure this will do the job. My youngest son picked out the color i guess this one is the Mean Green Smoking Machine.

Looks Good to me! I think your son did a good job of picking out the paint.
It's okay to disagree with me......you can be wrong if you want to. :P

Looks cool, a little burnt orange might not be bad on the other.

Nice color. That's the same color I painted my BMX bike when I was a kid.

Might as well keep with the neon theme... do the other one either bright yellow, bright orange, or electric blue.

I am cooking Costillas in my other one today. That is the best thing about owning two of them I can let this one get some rest and a real good dry on the paint while I cook away on the other one. My brother and I are in the precess of building four more so we will have plenty of cooking space our next competition. The last one we went two with only two drums we ran out of space fast.

I think the blue would be a good choice too.
