Ok blokes, finally started work on sorting the dyna before my son gets it back for spring. Done the easy stuff first, like putting that horrible stock light back on, last job is paint. It was matt black, he prefers gloss. Tank was easy ( I'd bought a gloss one two years back, new in the box off e bay for £190, they list at summat like £600!!), done it yesterday, was a swine of a job as the fuel injector fuel pump is in the tank and has to be partially dismantled inside the tank through the hole in the top, then obviously re assembled vice versa)
Anyhoo, mudguards are still matt black, ( HD call it denim black) taking them off today to sort it. My question is this...if I simply spray the matt black with many coats of lacquer, will it be gloss? Or do I have to gloss black it first I'm picturing it coming out satin or summat, but I have never tried it before so I don't know. All help/ advice appreciated..
