shes a little dirty so what I ride her hard

 

how did you polish your rims and frame? did you dissasemble the bike for the frame?

I think it looks awesome.

 

Not really I just took off tank and plastics and aircraft stripper was aLL i USED TO REMOVE THE WHEEL PAINT! can you believe that.

 

Wow, the wheels look nice. I'd never be able to do that, I'd drive myself crazy trying to keep them clean.

 

Yeah its a real pain in the *** keeping them clean I wanted to repaint the spokes black to match but thought it might not look right. Thanks guys for the kudos I appreciate it ! This bike was a pile of rubble before I got it

It was just paint I used aircraft paint stripper that you can purchase @ napa or auto zone for 6.99. The paint they use is some kinda zinc oxide that bonds really well to aluminum. But brush it on wath it peel right off. I did it with my tires on the wheels I just taped off really well and had water on hand to rinse it really well gloves a must that **** burns like a son of a bitch

 

You really need to stop talking about this..... and for the love of god stop explaining how to do it and where to get the parts..... I've come back to these pictures too many times over the weekend.

So the aluminum under the paint is really that shiny? or did you perform some type of polishing on them too?

 

I didnt put any kind of sandpaper or polishing wheel to it it was 100% all that shiny! All Ive ever used was mother to clean em thats it. OK OK Ill stop now but make sure and get the aircraft stripper the others my buddies used didnt work as well as the one sold at napa or auto zone. LOL

 

Nice, is that the tapeworks graphics kit?
