Re: solo seat project (updated 9 june)
I did the final sanding today, worked my way up from 100 to 1000 grit sand paper, It's not perfect, but I figure that I'm not going to get it any better without spending a whole lot more time, my moto is close enough is good enough.
After I was done sanding, I washed it real good with some warm soapy water, taped off the plastic bottom, and went to town with the spray can. So far I have 4 coats on it (I think 2 in the pictures). Another 2 coats and it should be good.
I tried 4 different paint cans of red, and I find that rustoleum red gloss enamel is the closest to my 99's ex500 red.
