It’s an old bike, and I didn’t feel like putting time, money and effort into a real paint job.
$6 for 1qt of Rustoleum “regular ass black,” and $7 for 1 gal. of thinner. Had some scuff pads, sandpaper, etc from before. Thinned 2:1 and sprayed through some crappy paint gun. I’ve also never sprayed with a gun before.
It’s definitely a 10-footer job, but it looks better than it did and was cheap
Actually, I was looking around on the CBR forums, and saw someone that painted it mostly white with some black here and there. It looked great. I might respray it. I mean, it’d only cost me 6 bucks and a few hours one day
You can put a few coats of Rustoleum on with a roller, then sand and buff to quite a finish. Someone posted a link to it in my old 92 beater Laser project thread. Some of the cars done like that looked awesome.
