Reply With Quotelol it was a general statement. The guy above me brought up the powder coating. Maybe the guy wants to do the forks, swingarm, frame, etc...
And BTW some plastics CAN be powder coated (I don't know how, just read it).

I got my paint from my local napa for around 115. That's for the base clear and hardener. All you need is one quart. Crazy Texan painted it for free with his gun and it came out outstanding!
He doens't pop up often these days, but when he does, he brings comedy......hence the picture!How can you powder coat plastic
^My beard is much longer :)
Idk maybe I'll just wait til next winter when I do the top end gaskets.... get the frame powder coated and body painted.....
I used the duplicolor paint shop on my air scoops seat cowl and side rails no issues ! Also used it on my hard top for my wrangler, no issues. I spent less than $100 and it came out real nice and has lasted. Of course my bike is garage kept so it isn't exposed to the elements.
If you have a hvlp ,air compressor and a clean shop I'd recomend it.
My bike is garage kept too I even pull it in the shop at work everyday.....
How did it spray? Any pointers? I restored a 48 farmall super c in school and use the Napa paint with reducers and all that crap. It turned out great and that wasn't even clear coated. I think I might try it and see how it turns out I'll do the windscreen first since that is cheapest to replace.....
Not like opinions matter on the internet, but I just wanted to throw this out there. If your plastics are still good and color isn't faded, sell them to someone who will appreciate them. Then buy some crappy plastics for cheap and paint them. These parts are never going to come back. Painting them ruins them and people who do should be tickled by a prison inmate.
Also, I like that tail Brad
