Painting fork legs

[coffee]

I  did my fork legs on a Honda pan I had in silver I had mixed up by Jawel paints,it was £12 at the time.I was to idol to take the forks apart so just took out the wheel ,mudguard,calipers etc and masked the rest off and put an old bed sheet over the bike.I flatted the legs down and primered them with car stuff,if I remember about 3 coats then flatted it with a fine paper.I'd always read lots of thin coats and recoat when the previous one was almost dry so that's what I did.After I suppose 6 coats I let it dry and then flatted it with 1500 and then did pretty much the same with clear laquer,again from Jawel.I remember blowing it all over with a hair dryer and leaving it for a good day or so before putting it back together and it was still as good when I sold it,a bit laborious but worth it.
