All...

A PO of my bike painted the case black. Most of it's krinkle, but I'm not sure that was intentional. The paint is intact mostly, but some is smooth from fuel spills that were not addressed until now.

I really don't want to strip the case covers, so I was thinking of refurbishing the paint a bit with the bike still assembled, masking as needed to freshen. What is the best case paint to use?

Cheers!

TC

paint striper is what you need, a couple of hours each side a polish and it will be all good at least you wont have to worry about the paint flakeing, and painting every year
