Default RE: REPAINTING the bike!!! **PICTURES**

Well im actually going into auto body repair, so I am doing this at my school, im taking a class that is open lab, basically you can paint a car if you want, you just have to bring your own supplies, sand paper, paint, primer, stuff like that. You can use their guns, paint booths, sanding blocks, tools, sanders, and their $70 gun for plastic repair. ....... I get a 10 or 15% discount off of supplies at a local paint place, I get a student discount.

A little of an update.

I have been trying to get all of the plastic repair done, and as im preping for primer, I come across a tiny tiny crack on the rear fender right on the little lip that comes out for the brake light, UGH!!! So I look on the other one and there is one there too!! So basically me thinking I was going to prime today isnt going to happen cause i have to get these two tiny *** cracks out. I was thinking about "not noticing them" and priming over it but I figured I should do this right, cause it will just lead me to more problems down the road. I will take some more pics tonight of the finished repairs.

Everytime you think your getting somewhere, you get kicked back to square one. Oh well, I guess its going to be worth it all in the end.... If I ever get there.

Just be patient, 90% ofa good paint job is in the prep work.
