    Ok so I need a lesson on how to do this. They look so awesome! What supplies do you need (spray paint..duh) but what else? And how long does it take?

    you use a lot of different stuff depending on what your design is, for me, pic #1 was just dish soap, clear coat, and a magic marker (and spray paint obviously:rolleyes:)
    pic #2 / #3 was just tape, clear coat, and a marker....
    and it took me like 20 minutes (prepping drying coating)
    I usually start by lightly sanding the board, then take some kind of cleaning material and clean your board so it looks brand-new. The simply just tape it and spray. The hard part is thinking of what you wanna do. i never pre-plan, i just do it and see what happens!

    wow pumpmasters are completely insane! wish i could make mine like that. zippy what kind of markers do you use?

    this is my first all-board spray but its also the only board ive ever bought brand new. i didnt use clear coat because there was a swell and i didnt want to wait for it to dry. been using the board regularly since january and the paint hasnt washed off yet.

    again amazing pics, this was a really good idea for a thread love seeing everyones artwork

    Ok so what do you mean by clear coat? Something to spray on over the paint or what? (sorry i've never tried this before)

    its ok haha, we all have to start somewhere!
    But clear coat is optional, but you should use it if you want it to stay longer. Its basically non-yellowing clear spray paint that comes in "matte" or "gloss"... you should use gloss, but dont use matte, different texture.
    this is the exact same one i use...
