    A few cans of primer, paint and lacquer backed up with some patience. Decals are available from eBay or direct from manufacturers.

  • I had my old frame powdercoated at a local company for £45.......stripped the frame of all the bearings and took the 3 pieces to them got it back in a week...I had to get the Dremmel out to clean a few of the bearing seats out.............just have a look in the yellow pages.....Next time I do it I will go for Nylon coating instead as its harder wearing and lighter than powder coating.
