Flame patterns are commonly used to decorate motor vehicles and bikes.
Flame patterns are used for decorating cars and bikes to add a vibrant flair to the original design. Flames can be painted in a variety of colors, not just the classic oranges, reds and yellows. The best way to paint flame patterns is to use a stencil or trace a projection so that the sizes and shapes of the flames are consistent throughout the pattern.
Instructions
1. Use a flame patterns stencil to trace a pattern on a large piece of sheet paper. If the stencil is not the size that you desire to paint, you will need to use a projection screen to increase or decrease the size from the original stencil. With this method, you will need to trace the projected flames onto a large sheet paper.
2. Use a razor blade to cut out the flame pattern from the sheet paper. Make sure when you cut through the paper you are not cutting or damaging any material or surface that is sitting beneath the paper.
3. Secure the sheet paper flame stencil to the object you want to paint on, such as a car or appliance, using sturdy tape. Make sure the entire surface of the object you are painting is covered to protect it from stray paint.
4. Use a paint gun to spray paint the over the flame pattern sheet paper and on to the surface of your object. Apply at least two coats of paint, and allowing each coat to dry before applying a coat over it.
5. Remove the tape and sheet paper from the object after the painted area is completely dry.
