Hi there KTM 530 good old uncle B@nNeD is back on the scene. I have not forgotten you I have just been involved in some legal matters latley & I still have my freedom. Much has happened in my life latley but I have beaten all problems presented before me so I thought I'd stop by & see how you are going, Good I hope & also it's good to see you have gained some +rep since we last spoke & have been given a medal aswell I have noticed. I'm happy for you my Bro good work you deserve it.
Now in regards to a respray if you have all necessary equipement to do this I would reccomend using an enamel paint as appossed to an acrylic paint. Acrylic paint can be rather difficult especially if you have only limited experiance with respray's as they can be a little powdery when applied. But enamels will give you a good high gloss finish wich always looks better, Now if you intend on sanding the vehicle back to bare metal I would suggest using a good quality fish-oil sealer. Now this will help prevent premature rusting of any expossed metal surfaces, Then use a good quality etch preimer over your fish oil coat this will help stop any rust that may show-up later after painting. Now I could go into a very detailed explanation but it my be quite long to read. But if you would like a good detailed tutorial on this matter I will do one just for you to try & help you with this queation. If you are interested just let me Know & I will do the best I can for you my Bro.
Happy to be back
