another question from me Very Happy

i am starting a project on an old speedfight 100, im am wanting to fill in the rear light an all indicators an re-spray it.

anybody got any good suggestions what i could use to fill the lights in and how?

and would it be ok if i just used normal cans of spray paint from halfords on the plastic?? i asked a paint sprayed an he said i would have to mix the paint with something, so the paint didnt crack when the panels vibrate?


thanx

Hello.

I once sprayed my nrg from the blue colour to matt black.

I used halford's primer(special one that bends when dry) then just sprayed over will matt black. I must of sprayed it about 4 times before it was good. I kept on getting trapped dust uner the spray with resulted in the surface giving this werid patten.

but i would say borrow or buy a airspray come's out smooth.

For the rear light's i just got any black spray and lightly sprayed over.
Thumbs Up
