My pimped stone Reo grand

[bjorncoetsee]

Was tired of my reo grand's look. So I did this to her:

How does it look?

It looks awesome man! Really nice. I like

Looks great @bjorncoetsee. Nice and grippy. Them stones do not come off? Tell us more about the process.

I just stripped the paint from the reo, sanded the aluminum, then used primer spray paint, and then after it dried, I used a stone finish effect spray paint, and then after it dried, I used clear coat. It feels solid,will see in a weeks time how it holds up in my pocket and after being used a lot.

Thanks, seems to me you have done a real and proper job there. A unique Reo for sure, well done.

Tell me, that drip tip you have there on the Atomic: Doesn't it gurgle after a while of use? I found that mine starts to gurgle after a while because of moisture build up in the base of the drip tip. I had to stop using it on all my atties. Really annoying.

Nope mine is fine, no gurgling or anything. But I always wash it when I change wicks

Mmmm.....strange. Mine only takes a few toots then it starts to gurgle. Then I clean it and vape on. Again only about 10 toots and it starts gurgling again, on all my atties. Had to stop using it.

Wow, @bjorncoetsee - thats really nice
Looks so much like it has little pieces of stone and grit on it - grippy as @Andre says
But you say its just a paint effect. Optical illusion
Awesome!
Enjoy.
