This is following a couple of coats of 2k 'clear coat' :-)

Basic paint steps on this restoration (customer had got a replacement frame about 20 years ago.... but a LOT of that frame had major loss to rust!, hence a significant amount of sheet steel fabrication/shaping and TIG welding over the last two months got it to the stage about 5 days ago for paint....)

Re-Shot blasted to rust free steel - Acid Etch '1k' primer - some 'Bondo' smoothing along all the TIG welds - 2K high build primer (several coats/rubbing down) - several base coast mix of silver/Skoda blue - several coats 'light purplish' with a touch of black to darken to close match to Honda 'shuttle' - several layers of Clear Coat :-)

PS the 'me' pic was from Sunday's paragliding while the latest layer of paint was drying!

PPS I'm based in Tayside/Dundee, this work was done for a long time customer of my friends m/c & scooter shop

Excellent. A stage that most restorers like to see done well.
