anyone who has painted their 50 with spray paint, let me know what kind of paint you used and how good it held up

 

use krylon fusion for plastics if you are gonna use a can paint

 

You can't paint offroad plastics, if that's what you planned on painting.

 

why cant you?

 

i plan on painting the off road plastics... im pretty sure some sand paper, a torch, and krylon fusion should do that job... im hopin

 

metalcast paint works well. you can get it at auto parts stores for like $5-6 a can, only on frames though and holds up real well. make sure you use the base coat first though. I just painted a friends bike and he spent about $30 in paint

 

I painted my frame black (krylon, I think) i used one of those brillo pad style 3M pads and the paint has held up pretty good not much in money but alot of elbow grease

 

rattle can paint..u stole this from the OM forums..theres a 4 page long thread on it

 

I've never heard of it not cracking and flakeing off. Maybe I'm wrong.

 

KRYLONG FUSION IS FOR PLASTICS IT HAS A FLEX AGENT IN THE PAINT KINDA LIKE PAINT FOR AUTOMOTIVE ABS BUMPERS AND SUCH, FLEXES TO A CERTAIN POINT.

 

as long as you prep the surface correctly you could paint a pumpkin. a paint job is 95% in the prepwork, not the spraying.

 

i agree

 

Im painting a pumkin when I get home!

 

hell you agree, I do all your prep work!!!!

 

i stole this??? yea, im sure OM copy righted all threads about spray paint.
