Title: iridescent motorcycle color "where to find it"
Post by: philly0128 on May 07, 2008, 08:23:01 AM
Hello guys! here's my bike and I would like to know if anyone knows where I maybe able to pick up the iridescent adhesive. I'm not really sure what it is but I remember the guy I bought the bike from saw a tear at the bottom of the bike and he told me to take a blow dryer to it, but stupid me I never asked him where he got it from. I would like to replace the tail w/ a supersport tail so I would need to match up the iridescent or just do it all over.

Ghost flames, so cool if done right.

Looks like a painted on deal. Are you certain it's not painted ?

If there is a tape that can be applied, I'm going to get some and do some very subtle things with it !

thanks guys on the compliment on the bike! I have to check it again, the guy said it was custome paint but I was so excited when I got it I didn't ask how could it be custome paint but he said to use a blow dryer or heat gun.

Thanks for the link this may allow me to keep this bike longer if I can change my seat and make the color change  :cheers:

If it's paint, it could be something like this.
