The instructions from Lauer showed how to tiger stripe paint.

Ted decided that he wanted to try it on his pistol.

We tore some strips of blue painter's tape in half and Ted taped his pistol.

The whole time he was doing it, I was telling him, "You're a wild man."

We then painted a contrasting color on top of the base coat.

After letting it dry in the sun for a while, we removed the tape.

Here it is in the sunlight.

Ted decided to add some more contrasting highlights to the paint, and we were ready to bake it.

We then baked it in the oven at 220 degrees for 2 hours, to cure the paint.
