mr. Niceguy Posted September 18, 2007 Share Posted September 18, 2007 I was wondering why nikkas dont like to paint tankers . I have a chill spot that pulls in tankers and hoppers all day long and all I ever see is streaks and tags on there. So whats the word ?

Freughtaholic Posted September 18, 2007 Share Posted September 18, 2007 yo ill see the occasional tag or streak on them but whats the point. they are round and hard to paint. come up with original shit on them and it might be cool but im not into them. go for yours though man!

~>MooseKnuckle<~ Posted September 19, 2007 Share Posted September 19, 2007 i will paint any kind of train i can get next to safely. im particularly fond of shit all the freight nobs shun. like tanks, gondolas, those cars with the big ass ridgs, whatever. tanks are hard to paint unless you are really tall or an acrobat, but ive done about a dozen of them. denz rocked them hard at one point. and they are usually in super chill ass spots.

exzo757 Posted September 27, 2007 Share Posted September 27, 2007 Tanks are sweet as long as you know how to use the contures to our advantage. I have seen some badass shit on the local ones heading to the Navy Bases Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chubbs Posted September 27, 2007 Share Posted September 27, 2007 id rather not do anything else but a tag on em. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BELTOLEUM Posted September 28, 2007 Share Posted September 28, 2007 i think the only reason is that it is harder to paint on then a regular autorack. but i think you they are fine to bust some tags on and some outlines. Hoppers are fine in my opinion bombs or pieces or throwies w/e. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hatetown Posted September 28, 2007 Share Posted September 28, 2007 how are they hard to paint? theres a fucking bar that goes right alongside of it that you can stand on. tankers are beginning to be my favorite because they are usually clean and untouched. who gives a fuck what shape they are Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Overtime Posted September 29, 2007 Share Posted September 29, 2007 people dont seem to want to paint anyting but boxes and reefers these days hoppers and tankers and gons ride the same rails and go around longer than most boxes and shit, its all preference, paint what you want, people are just stingy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
holy roller. Posted September 29, 2007 Share Posted September 29, 2007 Personally I don't paint them because they don't go very far, not because they're round. Stick it ina hoe ass U know? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goddamn Posted October 7, 2007 Share Posted October 7, 2007 but then again, some tankers have nasty ass shit leaking from the top and doesnt look very healthy to be standing near This is true, say you paint something while standing on the bar (which is flimsy) and or the little ridge that runs along the middle of tank. Your shit will be buffed the next time the tank is filled by nasty ass black shit which overspills on to the tank. they also sit in the back of businesses waiting to be filled, which is one of the reasons why they are so easy to hit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BELTOLEUM Posted October 7, 2007 Share Posted October 7, 2007 how are they hard to paint? they really arent hard to paint but some think it is harder to paint it since it buldges out but i think they are easy to paint but i wouldn't do anything else on it except a tag or an outline.
