Plastics Repair

It bubbled up on the top of the cowling by the engine. Sent back for repair, they just did a rough overspray, so I wasn't impressed. I get the idea that they can do a decent job, but only do so when the bike is likely to be high profile and give them some advertising. Paint on mine doesn't look bad though. Or didn't til I got my hands on it  :lol

I was taught once that to get the best finish, you spend lots of time and effort on preparing the surface, coats of primer, then paint, then lacquer, all flatted off, and all thin coats. I was told this is how you get a real depth to the shine. But then, the cost for most would be prohibitively high I guess.

Knowing how much Exupnut paid for his fairing, you should be breaking Deefer's arm off, Nick! Definitely worth it, the cost is very reasonable, especially considering the finish!
