You can save a mediocre paint job (maybe)

I got my bike painted this winner. First lesson, don't pick up painted stuff at night when you can't see it properly. I had a bunch of "outties" in the paint and orange peel. Thankfully, there was a bunch of clear coat to work with.

Brought it to another shop, World Class Auto in Fredericton, New Brunswick, Canada. They wet sanded it, did a full buff and wax. They also detailed the whole bike. $240 was a bit rich for my tastes. They say it took them 8 hours, alas it certainly looks better.

New paint and re-clearing the CF is the best thing I've ever done for the appearance of my bike.

Looks awesome man but I think those Arrows would come in for a close second  [laugh] like the change of font for the tank lettering.
