Thinking about painting skis opinions?

[ikindalikeskiing]

So I have some 2010 jj's (the darker graphic ones) and I was thinking about spray painting everything but the two orange/yellow parts a matte black think it would look dope?

I think they would look black

As fuck

It would probably be cool but would spray paint even stay on the ski?

 

[rudager]

It would wear out over time. You should just leave the graphics how are are

 

[ikindalikeskiing]

Yea idk right now but the spray paint I would use wouldn't wear off at all

 

[kingskier]

it would chip off/come off. whatever paint you use. even if your using proper shit like molotow or mtn. a spray varnish over the paint could work but i dont know. tbh i would just leave the graphic as it is but what i said could work.

Do it. Who gives a shit if they chip

Sand up the topsheets and spray just a few very light coats so you can still see the graphic coming through. Mask anything you want no paint on. I've done this to a few skis now and really like the effect. It scraped up a little over time but that still works.

Yea can't post pics of the skis cause I'm on mobile but there's an area on the tip and tail that's orange/yellow and I'm thinking covering that up and using a flat black and just covering it completely

i saw kid this winter who had painted his invaders solid black and it came out alright, try it

Sand it down, than once youve Painted it use commercial crystal clear enamal on it and that basically forms a thick plastic coating over the top sheet. My armadas lasted 3 years like that with just minor chips
