Alex Hirschi – better known as Supercar Blondie – did something never tried before when it came to giving her black-badge Rolls-Royce Wraith a new paint job. 

The original car came with a white main color scheme featuring a black roof and trim – but Alex decided to create something completely unique and enlisted the help of Carbonov Design to get it done. 

“I have come up with the idea of painting my Rolls with a pendulum,” Alex explained. To put it simply, a bottle of paint was placed inside a pendulum which was hung above the car and given a hefty shove to send it flying and chucking paint around. Sounds fun, right?

With just one shot at getting it right, Alex admitted to being nervous but went ahead with it anyway, splashing paint onto the car – and you have to admit, the whole thing is kind of hypnotic to watch, isn’t it?
