    frame paint

    I was just wondering if anyone knows if there is a good frame paint that comes in a rattle can and that comes in a variety of colors.

    I've never come across one. Every can I've ever used has been only one colour in a can...

      This stuff is great, http://www.prp-porstore.com/ It's like powdercoat in a can but you have to brush it on. It doesn't spray very well and is known to ruin paint guns.

        You mean you never used any rainbow or checkerboard paint?

          No, Rover, but there is a supplier a couple of hours down the road from here who sells HOK kameleon kolors. Now that would make a very different looking frame!

          All kidding aside, Steven, PJ1 makes a line of fame paints in a variety of colours to match OEM frame colours. These are expoxy-based paints that are supposed to be more durable than other paints. Check them out in the Dennis Kirk catalog.

            I ran into a guy a while back who painted his tank & side colors with that color-changing paint (I don't think it was HOK, but I'm not sure). Looked awesome--but unfortunately, he used the wrong kind of clearcoat, and the gas...well, you get the visual...
