The transformation

Good job - I should have used enamel.

 

FAIL

 

Now I have to re-strip the frame. Then decisions decisions: brush, polish or paint?????

 

I chose paint specifically because of the durability of the finish. Protects the frame as well. And, you can get so many awesome colours now!

 

As long as your clearcoat is the enamel and you have good surface prep & primer, you shouldn't have a problem with the chipping.

and you have a good enough action (back & forth, just like with a gun) then it's cool.

 

 

ER HUH, now look who's talking!

 

With a gun?! DUDE! :blink:

I'm going to act like I understood that..

 

Seeing your parts (NO, STOP RIGHT THERE) on the bed (I'm serious) made me envious.. OK I give up!

 

I bought some brakes today out of jealousy!

no codes.. - :( could not wait for CRC shipping, so got some elixir R's - :) and they should be here later. :)

 

I thought what the heck, anything is better than the crap I got now and as it happens, the R's are pretty good. :)

I've already decided I need new brakes too. My Formula Oro Puros are dying.

 

So... I'm waiting for CRC to get stock of these bad boys

It's for my 4X/jump bike, so the X2 (caliper on the left) would be plenty.
