Any one ever try this paint/ updated (Pics)

[troy]

Hey guys, As you probley know there's a new paint on the market called krylon fusion. It's a plastic paint. I would like to know if any one has try this stuff yet. The reason i ask is because my bike need fender work, only one side of the fender needs work, which will involve fiber glass and filler, the other side just needs some painting up. So any input on this matter would be great..Oh and before i get asked this, yes it's a backup light and yes it comes on the second it goes into reverse..:cool: ...nothing a simple relay and a couple of wire hooked up couldn't do


Thanks

P.S is there anywhere i can find new stickers for my 200ERN. i don't care if there OEM or some one can make them.

WET sand down your plastics, stay away from krylon fusion any spray on paint will come off. Eventually it will rub,melt,scratch,ect. off and look like crap.

See heres the problem, if your look at the left side of the bike, the fender was , how sould i say, half ass done with body filler for a car. The fender was hit by a Yamaha VK-12 Ski doo, and now because of the use it's got it's starting to fall apart. so this time it's going to be done the right way. not tin together and filler slaped on top of it...

That fusion paint has been around for years. I have used it on my radiator shrouds on my tri-z about 2 years ago and the paint still looks new. No flaking or anything. I can even bend my shrouds and the paint dont crack. I think the fusion paint is great for plastic as long as you prep good before painting. Regular spray paint aint worth a *Edited**Edited**Edited**Edited* on plastic. I put clear on too. Here is a picture of them painted with the krylon fusion.

yes krylon fusion paint works great. just sand the plastics a little bit first to get the big guages out and scrapes out then clean it off with some paint thinner to get dirt and oils off and spray on light layers. its better to put on alot of layers then to spray it on thick and have the paint run. after that let it dry for a couple days maybe even a week before you uses them so it hardens and bonds good. if you do it right it will look like a brand new fender wont even be able to tell there painted and the stuff last for ever with out flaking. you can even power wash it good luck

What about this huge crack thats in the fender, i mean this ski doo hit it bad, i still can't believe he never took out the clutch with his ski...

I can take off the filler and tin, and wire or stitch the plastic back to gether and use a much better filler that I used when i was working at a boat shop that built fiber glass boat. we use this filler for little holes in the fiber glass hauls and stuff like that.
