Figured I'd share some paint results. Lord knows my bansh would love some attention but the gsxr's first this time.

 

I used an etching primer and duplicolor's 'granite' rim acrylic enamel.

 

Two lessons learned

1- I used two cans and it did well but i would have liked another can to lay another wetcoat.

2- I should have used a respirator (I thought about it but not bright enough to buy it)

 

Prepped

Is that duplicolor's Graphite Wheel Paint / coat?

 

That is some good stuff. I painted a dumb and dumber mini bike and my raptor 660 engine with that stuff. It is a tough paint too.

Good to know. yeah it's the graphite wheel paint

 

 

I just picked up some gloss black to touch up the calipers and rotors so i hope they turn out as well as the wheels
