Custom Painted Pixzilla..
My first attempt at painting a reel..
It started out as an AIry Red pixy that had some marks on it and was pretty beat up..
I lightly sanded the frame to get the scratches out as you can see them on the top unpainted part..
Then shot a BLK pearl base with a blue Pearl Over coat as it blended in pretty well..
its now sitting on my Champ 703 for senkos and Flukes..

Re: Custom Painted Pixzilla..
Looks real good Trey. Are you going to shoot some clear over the paint to protect the finish?
