Glen cecently sent us his Strong CX frame to be redone. He also had a Strong MTB built not too long ago, and wanted it very similar.

First we have to strip the old finish. The discoloration is caused by cooking the stripping chemical out of the frame.

After it is bare and prepped again, we can put down the base colors. GR-02, which is a metallic gray, and white.

Then we can apply the masks to make the color break on the top tube. The color break on the downtube will just be a fade. On Glen's previous bike it was the same layout, but orange instead of green.

Then we can add the correct logos.

Glen wanted to add a stripe to one side of the rear end, which I am a huge fan of, and then we can add matte clear. Adding matte clear to GR-02 is also one of the best things ever as far as color, it looks a lot like old XTR gray (950/952).
