I wanted to do this design for my center console.




What would be the best way to paint this ?

A. paint it all black, mask over the areas I want to stay black and then spray yellow ?

B. Intricately mask of the 2 different at different times. So they don't over coat each other.

C. another way ? (Please explain)

This is my first attempt with a Graphite Grey and I think it's not too bad but would like to do something a bit more exciting and less bland.

I would go for option A mate, should be less hastle but just leave it to dry properly before masking (a day or so) as the tape will either lift the paint or give it some imperfections. Then do the yellow and laquer
