Nice, very very nice, better than factory, how many coats of the grey metalic colour were there and was there a clear coat to finish it, I'm assuming you didn't use the full 2 litre tin painting the engine bits. |

Thanks Baz, I'll pass the words of appraisal to the painter Quite frankly, I'm not sure off how many layers he applied. I assume he finished off with a clear coat layer - he usually does. I forgot to ask |

The bike is going to be fantastic! Can I suggest checking to see if the paint Has created a thickness to the surface That seals are going? Sometimes paint or chrome can Interfere? |

I also have to paint my covers because they were in such bad shape that I couldn't just polish them out. I am inspired by your results. Waiting for warmer weather to paint now. This is a great way to fix damaged covers that otherwise would be chucked aside. Mine had deep pits and corrosion that I JB welded and now they are primed and awaiting the weather. Thanks for the pix. |

Be sure you use a paint or clear That can handle oil or gas filled on them . Without solvent penetration |
