Ben Naylor has often sprayed his plastics (pink once) and he is a professional sprayer / panel beater you could ring him on 07772665791, and see what his views are

i think the only way to get them pink, is to paint them. or what about that wrap stuff?

what is the wrap stuff you have mentioned? never heard of that before? i did tell him i thought it would need painting, and by some one who knows what they are doing but thanks very much for your help so far

I had a red txt 280 2000 and it went pink all by itself so buy some red plastics and put them under the sun-bed :guinness:

The wrap stuff I've seen is just a big sticker that covers all the plastics

cheers

yeah.......... its like a thick clingfilm, its very tough, i once saw a camper van being covered in it, i think it was cheaper than painting it, and as its printed, so can get crazy designs

if you go with paint, make sure it has an additive to make it extra flexible or is intended for plastics.

I have used product like this with a heat gun. Take your time and starting in the middle and work your way out.

Pink vinyl sheet

The plotter cutters use this to make decals for trucks cars signs ect...

In trials under hard use it will last about a season before it wants to be replaced. I get in a funk and change the way my bike looks about once a month. Right now its getting some thick vinyl carbon looking stuff.

Here are some various phases.

When i got it I went all carbon but it lasted from may till about september

Then I decided to go with a wood theme but contact paper is not very trials friendly.

Now i am using some really thick stuff from factory effex and going back to carbon. I will post pictures when i am done.

Last winter we did zippy's sherco in skulls. Very trick.

I want to find some white and green plaid contact paper.

I have painted in the past and it just ends up flakeing off.
