    No, its not HOK, but I have used them before. This is from a company called Alsa. They make some interesting stuff.

    I like the mirra chrome with 97% of the shine of real chrome and also the candy concentrates. I want to do a red candy clear over my stock black motorcycle gas tank on my my Kawasaki 454ltd.

    A candy apple red tank over a black frame will look great, black and red is classic after all.

    Not gonna be a red tank. Its a black tank with a candy red clearcoat. The tank will look black for the most part but will always have a red hue to in on the ends.

    Me too ;) Now there will be delay while I fix the MG. I always have 3 or 4 things going on a once it seems. I also have the bar I built upstairs that needs that final thick epoxy on the countertop and I have been waiting on the warmer weather to do that.

    EP, that is a sexy looking car. Too bad about the dent, but at least the guy was cool about it.

    Oh, maud you have no Idea about the thoughts I had along that very line. A ghost rebel flag like this guy has for the US flag. Look at the pictures down towards the bottom of this page http://www.hotrodders.com/forum/red-candy-over-black-base-115179.html

    Well, he ain't paid me yet, we will see how it ends up. I will call him tomorrow and see if he will send me the $300. I wonder if he could send it through paypal? Does paypal charge to recive money? I have only ever bought through them, never got money.

    Eh, I would get cash (though I have a large preference for using cash instead of "digital" money, so I'm biased). I hope that you did get his insurance info just in case.

    OK, I got a check from him for $275 today so if it clears then we are square. I ordered $265 worth of stuff from ALSA today but not all for the car repair. Some for the bike too. I took a long bike ride after getting the check and just enjoyed the nice day. I did a bit of preliminary body work on the car when I got home.

    Maybe you shouldn't drive a PussyMobile and get a real man's car where people can see you.

    It's a fag toy. Why don't you put a motor on a 12 inch dildo and ride that around, too?
