@fiveten, thanks a lot, Spiros

Yes, the red paint looks darned good but sometimes the color of the adjoining masking tape can confuse the ol' eyeball, know what I mean, John @johnb? Fine looking bike so far.

I definitely enjoy these bike builds John (@johnb). You are making great progress on these. The painting of the red came out excellent. I am looking forward to hearing about and seeing the decals work.

This is how the red looks after removing the masks. Besides a bit of bleeding, it turned out quite well to my idea. Not entirely straight but from a distance not too bad.

Looks excellent from here, my friend @johnb!

Yes, looks great JOhn (@johnb)

These pieces look great, John (@johnb). It is amazing how well they came out. Well done.
