How to Paint Marble effect on a Motorcycle in your Garage
This video shows the process for painting marble effect or bowling ball effect on a motorcycle.
Here are the steps:
1. Prime
2. Paint base coat (Black)
3. Marble coat (White or Silver)
4. Candy Coat
5. 2K Clear
To achieve the marble effect you must use saran wrap or some sought of plastic bag.
The booth must be cool or the marble coat will dry to quickly.
Spray marble coat nice and wet
Then use the saran wrap and lay it over the wet piece.
Pat down the saran wrap and then remove.
Once you have the desired marble effect, let paint flash.
After flashing paint, add your candy coat, then clear.
You have officially created the Marble Effect or Bowling Ball effect.

Thanks for watching, Go to harbor freight if you want a cheap gun. The warwick brand is pretty nice.
hey man you have your shirt inside out and good job except for the fingerprints left on the tank
Bandit wassup big dawg……I’m painting my 05 gixxer having probs with taking tank off any suggestions
not gonna lie, half way thru i was thinkin “this thing looks like shit” but that’s why an artist usually doesnt wanna show the art till its complete. final product came out sick. nice job!!!!
Nice job!
Thanks for Watching! So would not get paint on the front.
There’s a bolt in the front and a bolt in the back. just remember to disconnect the hoses and wiring harness before removing it.

Subbed 😉
p.s. Would you be able to throw some tips please? I’m having trouble painting my tank. 🙁
pretty bad ass thats the same thing i wanna do to my vulcan 2k how do you get the black to show through more
Could do with some vein details. Look up some old fashioned marble-ising effects. It’s always a bit hit and miss with this type of stuff. Probably looked good when it was all on though.
very nice video nice and detailed paint job came out great and i know what im tring on my bike very soon
That looks really good. I never would have thought plastic wrap would do that. I have never done this before but I think the spots that got hit with the plastic wrap last looked the best so maybe wait an extra 15 seconds before hitting it with the plastic wrap.
I can’t believe you got rid of the orange peel that looked really rough with that orange peel effect but that cleaned up NICE!
candy red is a traslucid paint?, nice work
What kind of paint do you use
Brand???
What brand paint
why did you need to prime? 1:40
Not the worst ive seen. But man watching that guy spray was painfull!
I hope that was auto grade can primer and not just the everyday primer found everywhere,,it will start breaking down after time and the paint job will go to shit,,just FYI for future jobs,,the everyday primer is not compatible with auto paint,,auto grade primer in a can will run between $25-$35.
