I am just about ready to strip my bike down in prep for a rebuild with lots of nice new shiney bits and fancy spraying it a new colour. Q what is the best kind of paint to use ? :?:
It`s cheap but it gives me a thrill every time i ride it!

    powdercoat ideally otherwise take it to a body shop and get them to paint it, 2k paint last a lot lnonger than anythin out of a tin.

    Powder coat it and have a flip paint over the top

    If you like the TVR colours then do it m8 dont cost that much £100 tops as its just a laquer they apply over the powder coat.

    Anyone remember the old KLIEN bikes the paint on them was amazing.
