Re: Slowly cleaning & painting parts...
Nice. How did you prep it and what did you use for paint?

Re: Slowly cleaning & painting parts...
wire wheel, then degreased it with diluted simple green. finally wiped it down with alcohol and then primed with a high build primer. paint is a Dupont bc/cc setup
oh yeah and with the simple green solution i used a red scuffing pad

Re: Slowly cleaning & painting parts...
How many layers of paint? Looks like you dipped it in and let it drip dry. It looks great!

Re: Slowly cleaning & painting parts...
Thanks guys! I have been thinking about stripping the frame/blasting and painting it also, but I'm really leaning towards powder coating.
on the rearend I used 2 base & 2 clear coats. I wish I would have taking before pics that thing was nasty!
