What many don\u2019t realize at first glance is that it\u2019s not a bare aluminum body. The silver color is called \u201cKosmic Krome\u201d and it\u2019s a paint you don\u2019t see too often because the painting process has to be carried out to perfection for it to look good. The guys who made Platinum Bomb shine are Matt Means and Tom Prewitt of Department of Customz in Anaheim. The rest of the paint continues the aviation theme, from the black scallops to the green accents. That green isn\u2019t just a color picked because it looked cool. It\u2019s a reproduction of something called zinc chromate, a primer used on airplanes.
