i taped different size symbols to the jeep to figure out what size looked the best. Then made 15 Bio Hazard symbol templates on heavy paper - three for each color used. each template took 15 min to cut out with x-acto knife

bio hazard paint test run - Primed cardboard with base coat then used 1 Template to spray each color. Experimented with paint coverage & using all or partial of the symbol

first color on. NOTE: Using a Symmetrical object as a template is difficult, due to the advice given is to rotate the template 1/3 after each spray

three colors on the hood. You can see I went in a direction group of spraying, took a break for 5 minutes then painted across it for a second coverage. The goal was to have the best coverage of the symbols and keep the jeep total color light.
