What can be done about my forks
#8
As the link jimjenco showed you mine are like it too, but not that bad so I have let it be. Yam changed it to paint which is easier to look after but I think the brushed polish looks much better than the dull silver paint.
Once you have got the clear lacquer off l am not sure how well the paint would stick to the surface and would easily chip I think, unless you did so much prep work to the surface - in which case stripping the clear lacquer and re shinning with a fine wet and dry and then a new coat of lacquer would look better and be quicker. They are not polished underneath but have a brush texture.
But then of course you start all over again with a chip in the lacquer letting in water and the white fuz spreading under the lacquer that you can not get too. Ahhhh

Is there such a thing as clear powder coating that will be stronger than spray lacquer.         
I don't do rain or threat there of. dry rider only with no shame.
