We have two ATVs that we bought my first two girls when they were little. Well they are in great condition. I now have another two children but the problem is my youngest is a boy!!!! You just can't have your boy riding a hot pink Barbie ATV. Sooooo daddy to the rescue. This how it originally looked minus the Hello Kitty tape we put on the seat so my girl felt like she had something new.
We covered the seat with Avengers duck tape.
Then my husband covered the whole thing in satin spray paint for plastic in a little sand colored brown.
He took little leaves and queen palm fronds to hold in front of the spray to give it the camo look.
Gloves help to not get paint all over your hands.
For that layer we used a green spray paint.
The paint we used was leftover from when my husband camouflaged his boat so we purchased a new can of plastic paint and the duck tape for this project.
We put another leaf layer on with the same leaves but using a lighter brown than the base coat.
Then we went back over the light layer with another green layer.
He did the wheels a tan solid color. They were originally white.
And here he is with his finished project....
Pretty inexpensive project to make a boy proud. We love Daddy!!! He rocks!!!!
