Now I just need to give the clear a week to harden up, then I can wet sand to 2000 grit, and buff and wax it.
In the meantime, I just gotta keep from spilling it again.:woohoo:

Still learning (at my usual glacial speed) so here's another go at the pic -- but still don't see the bulb horn.
But Pee Wee and Pee Wee's Big Adventure remain all time faves. And btw, how many academy awards did it receive?
Oh yeah ... almost forgot to mention -- like the new avatar okay (but it sux in comparison). :lol: :lol:

Looks great. Good job with the paint. I am not sure I would be patient enough to try 3 times. I am glad you did though.

Just painted the front wheel with gloss black. I am testing to see how dinged up it gets with normal riding and road debris.
I want to wait to clear coat it, depending on how badly it takes damage. If I need to touch it up all of the time then I would rather not need to worry about a clear cote.
I'm gonna go get some pics.

Boy that front tire is dirty.
I am going to have get some soap for that.
I also got a new back tire. The tire that was put on by the prior owner was a bigger size. I put the original size back on again and am happy with it. It is a little taller circumferencially which drops the rpm at speed. and it is not as wide.
