A supplier of mine makes me very nice motorcycle fuel tanks, which are finished in red and blue gel coat, which with the addition of a white vinyl decal, provides a look very close to that of original Honda colours.
Wonder if anyone has experience of using 2 different colours of gel coat in the same mould? Seems to me he achieves this by simply masking a line along the mould, brushing on 2 coats of gel on one side of the line, waiting for it to tack, then doing the same on the other side.
He doesnt have spray equipment, so I know all this is done using a brush, which bearing in mind that very little masking is required, is probably going to be faster than spraying anyway.
This 2 colour finish is highly effective, and is something that can mean original looks, for any 3 colour original parts, by merely adding a vinyl decal.
Nice to hear from anyone who has tried this, as its something I would like to try myself in future, after making the necessary 2 piece moulds to allow easy masking lines.
