Tips sought for finishing the Cover, Dynamo

<< < (2/2)

Sesman:
I use the dot n dab method. Seems to work fine and avoids the masking and rubbing effort. You do need a fairly steady hand. I find the automotive touch up paints more durable than the acrylic type.

Just my opinion, but at least you now have choices.

The photos show a before and after treatment and before a final finessing.

Lobo:
Thanks all; knew the forum would have an answer!

Being the lazy type (ie leaving the casing on the bike), and not wishing to ‘unbalance’ the polished finish vs neighbouring casings, I went the spray + wipe clean (whilst wet) route - with a great result. Used the flat of a wooden lolly stick wrapped in a single layer of thinners damp cloth - and presto. Got 3 coats on…

Many thanks - oh and to you too Julie… another lazy win!
