Well, not really sure exactly what I was thinking, but got super bored after work. I've had these Splits for years, and them being so comfortable, I wore these so much in college that they became my beater pair. For some dumb reason, back then, I gave it the ol' college try recoating these matte black from polished with a 2-in-1 rattle can in the dorm courtyard, to much frustration of the R.A. You can see hints of crappy, lazy, beer-inspired college kid work. Now I'm leaving out the college kid part. Definitely still beer inspired.
Now it's time for a more proper, yet imperfect coat to breath new in some personality. Had them disassembled and ready to get dipped this evening and just went for it. Good news is, if I turns out like manure, I can strip it down and start again... I mow the lawn in these, so whatever, right?
Before-ish
Frame paint
Orbital paint
Kinda digging the orbital/jaw piece style and might end up that full direction. Just might repaint the whole thing that way.
What do y'all think?
