Hi Greg,
Well I would lay out the purple to most of the canopy that you want to be purple first. Let dry for about 24 hours depending on what paint your are using. Once dry, then I mask out the flame design. Now spray the yellow, then the orange. When it comes to the windshield, it depends on what the windshield is made out of. On fiberglass I spray strait black paint. And if it's a clear windshield I tint the windshield with black paint that I over thin.

Thanx!
Mort
