CR750 Paint
« on: April 07, 2018, 05:32:05 PM »
I'm just sorting the paint for my CR Rep and if my order this paint - https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Motorradlack-Motorrad-Lack-YR-1-C-Candy-Topaz-Orange-375-ml-Honda-CL-350-K/292374177089?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649 -
Will this kit give the stock standard candy finish (if my painter puts a clear lacquer on the top?
I know I would need two of these kits due to the fairing. As the ebay listing is in German, I can't seen to describe whats in the kit to my paint guy. He sprayed my K2 in Planet Blue - just give him the RS Paint kit last time but they are twice the price of the above.
Thanks
Phil

Don't know what finish will be like but the translation is
"Honda motorcycle spray paint set consisting of the pre-paint and the glaze paint". Comes with hardener which is split between the 'pre-paint' (primer?) (ratio 15-1) and the 'glaze paint' (colour?) (ratio 5-1). Don't know if this will help with your paint guy. Hopefully.

Thought I was getting them tomorrow on my birthday so I could spend day in the garage while the boss watches the royal wedding but they need to 'air dry'  over the weekend - drat!

Looks great Phil, it’s going to be a fine machine when finished, I’ll get back to work on mine soon, I’m waiting for my 944 to vacate the garage (given it to my cousin, he’s a car fanatic and will do a great job of completing it whereas I’ve completely lost interest in cars), think I’ll take the fairing off mine and fit a headlamp, sort of race inspired cafe racer for this year then fit the four pipes and paint scheme same as yours for next year, do you mind me asking how much your painter changed?

Not sure how much yet Mark. He's letting me know tomorrow as he had to do extra work painting the stripes and number plates on the fairing as the decals didn't match the fairing - and the all tank was ' slightly distorted' on the sides and he had to lightly fill it (the decals are made for your Meadspeed fairing). I will let you know when he tells me the price. I had a mint 944 Turbo SE until 2012 (sold it as only done 4000 miles in 11 years) - prices have tripled since! (For the Turbo SE)

Yes, 944’s are climbing, mine is a 1983 8v, no sunroof, no power steering, the purists one 🙂, I had it on the road for years but it began to look tatty so started to restore it 8 year’s ago, did all the brakes , cam belts etc and was prepping for paint when I got back into my first love, bikes!, it has sat neglected in the garage ever since, but I’ve never had the heart to sell it, as it would probably get stripped for parts, however I’ll never get back into cars so it’s just in the way, then it came to me, my cousin is still a car nut and he had helped me financially during a divorce 15 years ago, always refusing repayment, so it’s the ideal solution, the car gets restored, it stays in the family, and I get to feel I’ve repaid him and get my garage back!, everyone’s a winner.

Looks fantastic Phil, well done mate that’s a great build 👍
Not far to go now, will you be putting the front indicators inside the Perspex screen in a similar fashion to mine?.

They're in the fairing body already if you zoom in Mark - quite discreet - rear are part of LED rear light
