right now i'm knee deep in my motorcycle project. I had the frame and swing arm powdercoated wet black. ( a nice deep gloss black), also everything on my bike is powdercoated except for the lower fork tubes. (long story)
I need to get a pretty close match to the frame and other bits. I had a can of gloss black engine enamel (duplicolor) lying around and did a test panel. it's comes out glossly then will dry to a white milky finish.
I really wanna try that professional grade acrylic enamel. I think the gloss black will be a really close match and I don't need the heat protection.
I can't seem to find any in town. (zip code is 83348, delray beach, FL)
also is there any tips for putting this stuff down. right now I have the lower fork tubes paint with rustoleum applicance epoxy. (been on there for 2 months) this stuff is super, super strong, but I don't have the gloss and depth. can I take a red scrubby pad to it and paint over this stuff?
thanks in advance
