Alright guys, I'm thinking of attempting a re-spray in a couple of months, maybe sooner.

What would be the best way to get my frame ready for painting?

Does anybody know where I could get a hold of some new stickers or would I be best contacting Voodoo directly and asking them?

    Have an ask at your local powder coaters how much for stripping, then you can prime and paint how ever you fancy,

    If it's an alloy frame you can't use regular primer (well not if you want it to work) you have to use and acid etch primer, about £15 for a can.

    Have done 2 frames myself.
