DIY Painting Tips Sticky in Tech Section

[Langanobob]

I thought that the DIY Painting Tips thread in the Tech section was a sticky.  But lately it's been drifting farther down the page like any other thread.  Did something change or is it my browser or am I suffering from perception malfunction?  The thread's very useful and I think it should remain as a sticky.

I unstickied it.

I initially intended the thread to be a pro to DIYer affair....not opinion/techniques from lay persons...accurate or not. We can all break out the rattle can...and that's not a bad thing if a rattle can job is what you're after. I thought the pro process would be enlightening to those that wanted to go farther.

I'll still be here to add my limited experience to the mix.

One good solution would be a painting FAQ.  But it would take a lot of time to compile it from the existing Painting thread.  I'd tackle it but I'm not very qualified and it would probably take a lot of work to fix what I came up with.

Or you could just ban the term rattle can from the thread.  But that would mean a lot of active moderation.

theres two tutorials i think about spray canning your bike.

it works. my tanks got duplicolor spray canned and then i got it cleared for $60 bucks... so far its survived 2 crashes, an expanding tank, some douche bag who keyed it, and that one time a car backed up and ran it over...oh and that one time someone poured resturant grease on it....

just make sure you clear coat it.
