Bling's the best .. mayne ! He deed it.

And it came out great.

That's a pretty good swirl. I tried it a couple times on pedals, one worked, the other I ended up sanding out.

How flat is the finish? I find it really hard to get swirls flat.

It's not my thing but I bet you could sell that for a lot of aligator bling.

that's a BlingTop fo' sho'!

I don't usually go for crazy paint jobs, but I actually dig that one.

You done did it and it turned out swimmingly. Now all you need is a matching MicroBus.
