anyone have pics of paintjobs that fade into another color? i seen a truck that fades from a dark teal metallic into a metallic silver. just curious if anyone has pics of a paint job like that. and how is it done? i dont have to tape anything off right? just try to keep the area where it fades as small as possible? i might do this to one of my cars. like my 87 mustang gt. have the top black and the bottom dark blue and have it fading.

I'll have to vote hell no for it. Fade paintjobs are hideous. I've done 1 fade job having to blend the color into the adjacent panels to make it match(collision work) and they're actually pretty fun to do. It was on an 88-98 silverado, emerald green on top, black on bottom. I shot the green first, then faded in the black, and came back over the fade area with green again to blend it all together.
