Hey guys,  
I’m wondering how you guys painted the clear FHZ yoyo into a gorgeous, colorful looking yoyo?  
Did you guys take off the caps and add paints with different colors on each gap of the yoyo, then caps back on and spin it to spread the colors?

Let me know if that’s how you do it or not…

That’s one way, though most people don’t put the caps back on when they spin it. Others use a brush and hand paint the design.
