The otherday a thought occured to me: pinhole cameras either come in wood finish or shoe-box finish :wink:

So I thought to myself I'd rectify that one - my pinhole cameras have now been painted fire engine red :D I found this stuff called Japlac, I think... Its an enamel paint, all in brilliant colours, and I mean - who doesnt like the go-faster reds anyway :smile:

Gave them a coat today, lookin sweat as a nut! Only downside is I can only do a coat a day as this stuff takes so long to dry, lol!

So who has the most garish looking pinhole camera then?
 
I wonder if they make that stuff in British Racing Green? :wink:

You need to get Datsun 2000 racing green in Japlac.

Sounds like a great idea.

great idea , painted pinhole cameras . after i start building up my camera collection i'll have to paint a few .
 
If the red is bright enough and you add a racing stripe, it's certain to cut 10% form your exposure times!
