Can anyone give me tips on getting the correct finish on the yokes and fork sliders on a 1980 900ss please.
On my Darmah the yokes are the same (paint) as the frame... but the fork bottoms are polished to an inch of their lives. So does the SS have the black fork bottoms with matching yokes?
i used to use this as a texture coat then a coat of halfords semi gloss or gloss as a top coat https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/174107679685?_trkparms=amclksrc=ITM&aid=1110006&algo=HOMESPLICE.SIM&ao=1&asc=263731&meid=483d37422d2a45b88a1d4511bd4b56ce&pid=101875&rk=1&rkt=4&sd=321432678136&itm=174107679685&pmt=1&noa=0&pg=4429486&algv=SimVIDwebV2WithFraudScoreDemotion&brand=U-POL&_trksid=p4429486.c101875.m1851&itmprp=cksum:174107679685483d37422d2a45b88a1d4511bd4b56ce|enc:AQAJAAABAHm1rnvxuex7Zk%2Ffb5CDvzZ%2FYA96sKkqyjJwNZASWuGxf9YdmT5OUxem2Jm7fFnSJTVUJAxujSN9QhHXfgMp2S72rV9YnmBVRec6eiisvnQE0kcap14fYSsWmPqjL%2FUGWxcHlL8AV4V7HnPUoZz3k01lEigKB4ZSyyn6NJ7YZaf%2FWUm7%2Bz5grCRYIdtn1sqUkkUPmPuFpySqA%2FKFe70%2FhcPptUyzcrRzDccsaP%2FDEk3S9TdUm5mDcoDtt0EKhCmVjVCLP3PQdXWTsU6ruqBgKTh1VScW4zKJXv65Sg3%2BU5Lh7YTqgZYK8L4SrzbCFGBQL9Q0EpVlSLVC1RrGnZJ%2FOvs%3D|ampidL_CLK|clp:4429486&epid=1344062897&itmmeta=01HVKH4Z4SZDJFE4E8E22K0YDV problem is i cant remember if i used fine or medium but i would think medium coarseness .
Cheers, but the original paint was satin black with a textured finish as if it was dusted with sand before it had dried and the painted again. Maybe it was Or the spray nozzle was a bit blocked
just for your info this is a 900SS straight from the crate And this is a leg i did for my website using the U-pol, i used a satin black and should have used gloss
Cheers. My forks had never been touched so looked exactly like the first picture. I will experiment with stuff in your link to see how I get on.
