My bike was stolen and then found 6 months later which the guy was half way through repainting it. Needless to say, I have to repaint the whole thing. I have a very limited budget so I was going to use spray paint. Can anyone suggest a specific brand or tell me who to stay away from? Any help would be appreciated!!

if he was spray painting it with cans you need to find one that is compatible or use the same brand. no insurance money to cover the cost of repairs?

 

also what color you planning to spray?

for mine i have had great results with rustoleum. once it cures its a tough paint. and as long as you don't put it on too heavy and get runs then it always comes out shiny. put a bunch of coats on and you can also buff it to a mirror then clear coat it

 

no none. I dont know what the other guy was using. He did a good job on it. The guys at the Kawasaki dealership were very impressed!

 

lol - good artist, bad person. or did he buy it from the theif?

you can test the spray paints on a small area of what was painted. if it dries smooth then you are good to go, if it bubbles up at all then you need to try another brand.

 

also have had good luck with the dupont duplicolor car paints from autozone.

 

Awesome! I will check all those out! I am going to be doing it yellow. I like to bright colors, not the dark ones. I like the attention!

 

Color-Rite makes OEM quality paint in a can. It's expensive, but works and finishes out well once you wet-sand and rub it out.
