Hey, just got done painting my xplorer...thought I'd post it on here for your viewing pleasure. I used American Tradition plastic spray paint I picked up at Lowe's. 6 coats of "fire engine red" and then 2 coats of high gloss clear acrylic spray paint. Went to my local import car tuning shop and picked up some decal material, did the cut out and stuck it on to paint the negative image. I think it turned out great!

Very nice man. How much is it for a single can of that spray paint? The decal is very smooth and clean. The red goes really well with the black neck. It'd be pretty cool to paint the fret buttons all the same red. Just a little suggestion. Looks nice anyway

Thanks for the great feedback!
I really like that punisher paint job you did on yours FallenSeraph. The fret buttons are a really nice touch. I actually spent quite some time trying to figure out the best way to orient the decal I cut out onto the guitar to have it look the best, but I didn't think of that way.
Ummm...can of the spray paint is like $4.50 or something. Cheap mod to do...just go slowly and apply several LIGHT coats.
