Thanks! Its a bit rough around the edges, just like my riding!
Its a Cassette Concave 41 with custom fins.
I used regular spray paint on the base and a heavy-duty 'stone' spray paint on top. The stone has the black/white speckles which gives it a good rugged look- plus it covers all the blemishes and cracks on the top sheet. The top sheet looks pretty cool in person- it looks like brand new pavement

Thats awesome man.....I'm diggin the retro 80's graphic!
I just finished a re-finish of a Cassette 2003 42" 4-trac. I brushed the paint on cause I could not find green spray paint with a close enough match to the original green. Then I drew the graphic with a sharpie....man that was time consuming!
Here's a before and after pic.....Long Live The 4-Trac!

deepcove, nice work.
I'm done. I put 4 coats of Urethane on the outside, it should last a season or two.

Volcom has an Andy Irons Rising Sun board short to match.
Looks pretty damn sweet. I remember that deck too. Nice job.
