Title: Tank Painting & Clearcoat - Q added to paint thread tacked to the start page
Post by: DuciD03 on May 14, 2008, 10:21:58 AM
Duksters:

Has anyone repainted & clear coated a "Dark" tank? and the other parts, the front fender, fairing, rear seat cowel?

I'm thinking of touching up, then clear gloss, semi-gloss or satin clear-coat laquour finish to protect the Dark tank.  The stock paint seems to be easily scratched, minor scratches on the seat side with a minor dimple per side on the tank show up with the white primer coat.  Thoughts, experiances & suggestions appreciated.

Cheers DuciD [moto]

I have seen darks painted with a glossy clearcoat and the results were very good. It changed the look of the paint beyond the flat to shiny aspect.
