5.0 out of 5 stars What can I say......Jon Kosmoski, April 28, 2001

This review is from: How to: Custom Paint & Graphics - Graphics for Your Car, Motorcycle, Truck, Street Rod (Paperback)
Jon Kosmoski, the pioneer of custom painting for motocycles and autos. His name just says the phrase "House of Kolor."

This book is well written. The content is well related to custom painting a motorcycle and a truck. You need to be very creative to do this type of custom painting. This book definately helped me do my custom paint job. I would recommend this book to anyone, but then again, like I have said earlier, do not rely only on this one book as your sole source for custom paint jobs.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good but incomplete, June 19, 2003
By 
Mulepick (Henderson, Nevada USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: How to: Custom Paint & Graphics - Graphics for Your Car, Motorcycle, Truck, Street Rod (Paperback)
The book was helpful but spent a lot of time on no brainers like staying clean, etc.

Absent was any decent discussion of HVLP painting let alone technique differences. This is the way starters will paint and more should be devoted to it.
