Witness an average man, flesh skewered deeply and imbedded with shark fishing hooks! Marvel as a mere mortal fueled only by free will... Ferociosly Pulls, twists, and stretches hooked apendages to transform the pastey dermal landscape of his own hide and finally ascend to new heights, literally!" This is NO ILLUSION! What you will see is real... and remember ladies and gentlemen all this done without the assistance of his unicycle. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ hungfromhooks's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/6954 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/36201
What's the uni going to be used for? If it's a trials or MUni, I wouldn't bother with a nice paint job, it would get messed up too fast. If it's a distance or freestyle, go for it. I've never tried painting one of my unicycles so I don't have much in the way of insight. I do know that powder coating seems to be the way to go in terms of strength. I think it would be best to powder coat the base and hand paint the details. You can always repaint the details if and when it gets messed up.
mostly it would be for commuting and learning purposes (still learning how to ride) and maybe some muni once i get better at riding (i.e. learn to ride)
it'll already be powdercoated, i just want to paint the chinese characters on.
hrm...
