Colour Coding: Bullets.

[James28]

I have a black Mk2Ph2 Clio and have colour coded my side strips black to match the rest of the car, I am just unsure of what colour to do my Bullets.

I have 182 Anthracite Alloys, so thought I could maybe match them.
Either Anthracite Back with Black lettering or
Black back with Anthracite lettering?
Or any other ideas?

Also when spraying the bullets would it be best to spray the whole thing in primer, then mask/bluetac off the letters/background for spraying the two colours, then laquer the whole thing?

Also when spraying is it best to hang them up to spray/dry or leave them flat to spray/dry?

Thankss

id do the bullets anthracite and lettering black its more noticeable

in regards to spraying id recommend laying the piece you are going to spray paralel to how/where you hold the gun to try and keep the paint even.

hope that is some use. :approve:

Yea thats what I was veering towards
Im only doing it with rattle cans just was a bit worried about run lines as its not a flat smooth surface with the letters.
Thanks for your help.
