Spraying a frame, by weaver on Nov 4, 2008 22:54:16 GMT 1, For this purpose you are better trooping to the shops, as its quicker and cheaper than shopping online for a product that is easily available and purpose built rather than graff based sprays which are more expensive and not really designed for what you are wanting to do.
Hit B&Q / homebase, they have some good sprays for ยฃ3-5 for a 500ml tin that is good stuff, I've used it on alot of custom frame jobs and been very happy with the results.

Spraying a frame, by They call me Stephen on Nov 4, 2008 23:19:42 GMT 1, woudl you recommend spraying natural wood frames instead of painting them and if so what would eb the process? Would you need a primer of some kind or woudl white spray paint do the job? Is it a particular type of paint??

Spraying a frame, by sfdoddsy on Nov 5, 2008 6:50:39 GMT 1, I just use spray cans for mine. I buy all my frames off eBay and then spray them gloss black. Fits in with the whole 'street' thing too.
