AZ Kinda Guy Posted March 11, 2005 Posted March 11, 2005 For the katrillionth time, Vortex did NOT get a paint job. Quote
Dane Posted March 11, 2005 Posted March 11, 2005 This has already been discussed. And what AZ said. Quote
kong fu guy Posted March 11, 2005 Author Posted March 11, 2005 O i'm sorry you can close the topic if you want (I'm so sorry) Quote
Dan Posted March 11, 2005 Posted March 11, 2005 You don't have to be sorry, just try to use the search feature next time, it's your best friend. Quote
Columbus coasternut Posted March 11, 2005 Posted March 11, 2005 Yes it's being repainted red white and blue and they are changing the name to Captain America.Just kidding no the reflection from the sun in this picture makes it look Blue and Silver. Quote
TheKlockster Posted March 12, 2005 Posted March 12, 2005 It is hard to use the search all the time. Especially considering it searches the PKIU and PKIC posts. I mean - if you do a search for Vortex - it will take you a long time to sift through the results! Quote
dxrunner Posted March 12, 2005 Posted March 12, 2005 Don't be sorry it happens to all of us. Yea but it seems to happen to him ALOT Quote
kong fu guy Posted March 12, 2005 Author Posted March 12, 2005 That is true^ I was banned for over a one month from this website Thats why I came back new. Quote
Alien Seed Posted March 12, 2005 Posted March 12, 2005 I can see the orange perfectly. I don't know how you can see silver. Quote
TheKlockster Posted March 12, 2005 Posted March 12, 2005 Maybe the silver he is referring to is where the wheels have scratched off the paint... Quote
kong fu guy Posted March 12, 2005 Author Posted March 12, 2005 Why thank you Klockster. That probly what happen the wheels scratch the paint off. Quote
Alien Seed Posted March 13, 2005 Posted March 13, 2005 I'm not making fun of you. But about the paint, i've never seen the paint scratched that badly...whenever it is, there's a lighter, older coat of orange. Quote
TheKlockster Posted March 13, 2005 Posted March 13, 2005 No - there are silver lines on the top and inside of the track. They are where paint has been rubbed off. You cant see it everywhere - just some spots. Intamin goes the extra distance to paint white lines on their track - where the wheels are going to rub it off! Oh - and BEST SIGNATURE BANNER EVER! ↑ Quote
KIBeast Posted March 14, 2005 Posted March 14, 2005 Yeah, but what does Intamin have to do with The Vortex? Arrow Dynamics built The Vortex. I don't see any silver in that pic. I see the typical orange and blue. Didn't Vortex get repainted like in the last 2-3 years? There's no need to repaint it. Quote
emonun Posted March 14, 2005 Posted March 14, 2005 You know they give a fresh coat the baby every once in awhile. I am an expert at painting the coaster. Quote
dxrunner Posted March 14, 2005 Posted March 14, 2005 Ok since no one else will admit they are making fun of you, I will Quote
TheKlockster Posted March 14, 2005 Posted March 14, 2005 I know its not painted. What I am saying is that there are stripes on the track where the paint gets worn off. This happens on all tubular steel rail coasters. Intamin takes extra measures to protect theirs. Quote
KIBeast Posted March 15, 2005 Posted March 15, 2005 haha, very funny. It takes a real expert to know that it was painted two years ago. Quote
