Question for SEBSPEED - re: Carbon fiber can be just as mesmerizing as a high end metal flake finish

[RossR]

Hi SEB,

 

I saw your brief video of the carbon fiberglass tank on Facebook. I do not do Facebook so I cannot post there. and I figured that everybody on the Forum benefits if I post my question in a thread, so I did not PM you.

 

Was that a Hydrodip or a wrap?

 

I am a big admirer of your Streetfighters.

I'm sure he will see this soon enough but the quick answer is that tank was real CF over a 6th gen tank. I have seen it and held it. It is a thing of beauty.

Thanks for that.  I was just blown away when Seb posted his streetfighter images. He is super talented.

 

Any good sources for CF materials that are not astronomically priced?

 

CF over a tank...brief video. I learned something today.

Hi Ross, as Sweeper said that tank was real carbon twill wrapped over a steel 6g tank. Multiple layers of resin, and clear top coat to protect.

Thanks Seb.

 

So basically like the short video clip that I posted. I think that I will experiment on two Givi cases that I was going to paint or wrap. Any suggestions for sourcing the materials, and recommended brands?
