DJR Posted October 1, 2020 Posted October 1, 2020 Has anyone else experienced that bikes which have been resprayed seem to chip easier than the original paint? Could just be the way 'my guy' who is just a regular car spraypainter does it of course ...With proper 2K paint, i.o.w. a base and catalyst that they mix, it is as tough as car paint. Rattle-can paint from Builders is rubbish and will chip if my wife gives it a stern "look". (You also get 2K paints in rattle cans). Steven Knoetze (sk27) 1
