Dirtbreath Posted March 16, 2009 Posted March 16, 2009 Is the paint coming off or the clear coat ? I need to do a clear coat on my frame. What do you think my best option is? Frame is black powder coat, swing arm is half carbon, half naked aluminium.

AndreZA Posted March 16, 2009 Posted March 16, 2009 Is the paint coming off or the clear coat ? the red paint. you can see the white what looks like primer now. It is where the shock mounts to so they might have not covered it properly. And for some reason the paint is not 100% dry yet. This is over a year later. If you attached a light or bungy cord to it when transporting it, it leaves a mark. And if you leave it in the sun for a while, it goes away. .
nero123 Posted March 16, 2009 Posted March 16, 2009 The clear coat probably doesn't have enough hardner added, that's why it leaves indents when you press it but goes away in the sun.
Cycle Art Posted March 17, 2009 Posted March 17, 2009 What did you wash the bike with? It's a bit odd that you have been washing the frame for a whole year and it's only just coming off now? Please send us pictures asap to cycleart@vodamail.co.za or better still bring it through to us land let's have a closer look. Lil

AndreZA Posted March 17, 2009 Posted March 17, 2009 Lilian, I'll send you pics. Like I said, it's in the shock braces. You proberbly did not clean it properly or did not get enough primer on. I clean it with Finish Line bike wash. .
nero123 Posted March 17, 2009 Posted March 17, 2009 Same bike as previously, just another few small tweeks.
Die Holander Posted April 13, 2009 Posted April 13, 2009 I need work done to my old Alpina.Diamond black with silver pinstripping. Alpina's logo's never stood out as the most interesting, so I might leave that out. With all this there's the bars and neck. The crank and rims that needs the same treatment. Give me some idea of cost if posible. Thanx.Gerhard.

The Pirate Posted April 30, 2009 Posted April 30, 2009 I have done my previous Eddy Merckx through them and I was very happy, I sent a nice photo of how I would like it and it came out almost the same. But with my latest project I am very disapointed. They haven't done it yet but this was what they gave me .... Looking for maybe a bit more detail ... The Pirate2009-04-30 07:33:58
Cycle Art Posted April 30, 2009 Posted April 30, 2009 Sorry Jaco, not sure what you are getting at? You sent us a whole bunch of pictures and asked us to come up with a design for your tandem using all of the logos on the said pictures.....must say I am NOt an artist, this is a rough draft (as anyone can clearly see) and was merely to show you what you could do!! After waiting to hear from you for a month and the above comments, I take it you don't like my design! Actually, looking at the last mail from you on 31.3- you changed your mind and want a white tandem?? Lil
