We tried both top and clear coats and the main things to get right are the prep and etch primer, you will be no good with normal primer. Still think powder coat is very good for things like brackets etc.
Thanks!
I do agree with you in regards to brackets/foot rest hangers/ etc......i'm just really wary of it where the part needs to retain its strength....i'm sure the people who have had their frames / swingarms powdered, have not had any problems whatsoever.
Excellent, i'm now motivated to get on with it....i have a list on the garage wall, and a photo of what i want to do for inspriation
I'm gonna donate, so i can get a thread up to show build progress, and support the site at the same time!
