For the first layer made of paint , we're going to draw with the pen on the bike what shape we want, then put duck tape on the edges as seen on the first picture , then to cover the rest of the bike and not get it sprayed , cover the rest of the bike with paper using duck tape also and letting only the original piece of bike metal showing.
then spray it from a distance , wait 5 min then apply another layer , do so for a minimum of 2 layers to 5 layers maximum .

Making of the Second Layer
