frame covers - brooker81 - 29-10-13 Right this weekend stripping bike for winter work etc, sending of plastic bits to be dipped etc. What should i do with the frame covers ?? i was thinking of spraying with Simoniz aluminium engine enamel, has anyone done it or have any better ideas for cleaning/ removing pitting?? i dont want them to be dipped as i have a silver engined fazer and don't think it would look great. Any ideas?? Re: frame covers - sirgalahad3 - 29-10-13 Silver engine here too. Had mine powder coated satin black and they look very good IMHO. Re: frame covers - brooker81 - 29-10-13 any pics Re: frame covers - sirgalahad3 - 29-10-13 Best on I have but you can see covers. The coating solved the pitting probs etc. Taken at Arley railway station,Severn Valley railway Re: frame covers - sirgalahad3 - 29-10-13 Pic Re: frame covers - brooker81 - 29-10-13 does look nice that actually would need the frame plugs done too then :'( Re: frame covers - sirgalahad3 - 29-10-13 Frame plugs were bought off Devils yam from this forum. Re: frame covers - devilsyam - 29-10-13 yep i got em ummmmmm carbon ![]() Re: frame covers - esetest - 29-10-13 1 of mine fell off last year , got a replacement from foulups , cost about £ 20 , robbing cnuts . I do like the look of devilsyams covers . Re: frame covers - brooker81 - 29-10-13 How much u want for plugs luke? Looks like it maybe an expensive month Re: frame covers - bludclot - 30-10-13 here the frame covers are painted with the simoniz engine silver and then lacquered. the plugs are colour coded to the frame: ![]() and this is how it looks overall: ![]() it looks better in reality than the pictures make it look. i have toyed with the idea of swapping the colours round but other projects have taken priority to be honest. hth. |
