2 ton 30 minute devcon epoxy. It is High gloss and super tuff. Just brush it on with some super cheap paint brushes from the school section at wal-mart.
So I decided to start painting my own cranks instead of buying $5+ bandits. I got a batch of 20 painted up tonight and I think they came out pretty good for my first attempt ever with an airbrush. My question for you guys who have done this what do you use for the protective clear coat and what's the best method to doing it? Thanks and I'd appreciate any honest feedback on the cranks!

I've tried several different topcoats but always go back to Devcon 30 minute epoxy with a brush. I also built a rotisserie from a gas grill unit and turn mine for at least 8 hours immediately after I brush on the Devcon. Even though it says 30 minute dry time, your actual working time is MUCH less.
Another trick is you can take glitter and mix it in the Devcon before you brush it on. It will speed up the kick time so mix it in small batches.

Anyone tried this? I would have to order the devcon but can get this at the local hobby shop

Beautiful job on those cranks!

Should work. You better make sure it dries clear as some have a yellow hue to it when it dries and will alter your color on yours cranks.

Where do you get you unpainted cranks from?
