Monster S4R - Munchstrada 1100S - 749R

Anyone know the best way to refinish Sharkskinz panels? Have some panels with tiny chips from rocks that I'd like to fill and sand down prior to repainting.

Any particular epoxy I can use to fill and sand? I'd like to use something that wouldn't affect the paint later.

TIA

You can fill chips with a polyester filler.

Experience has shown that a butt joint...if you understand what I'm referring to...is not the best way to do it.

It works best if you feather the edges of the chip first and then fill.
