My wife really wanted to paint her 2009 Cannondale Slice.

This is what it looks like after the clear coat.

White and clear base.
Alcohol inks.
Spraymax 2k clear.

Unfortunately some spots that she used the pink on top of other colours turned brown after the clear coat.
I think they were always brown, but before the clear it was darker and looked almost black. The clear coat always makes things brighter, so then all of a sudden the brown showed.
She’s a little bummed about that, but not much we can do about it now

  1. That looks amazing! Is the Cannondale lettering a decal or painted? You should put her name or something unique to her on there. Cannondale’s logo is cool and all, however your work is cooler.

  3. I thought this was a before at first and thought “why the hell would you paint that?”
