I have a can of that, in Black, sitting on the workbench. Cant decide if I want to use it yet or not so let me know how yours turns out! Grin I'm thinking of painting my fenders black to match the other plastics!

yeah, let's find out how it stands up to riding conditions.

I'd love to go buy that stuff and change the color of the fenders without buying new plastic.

It holds up very well to all conditions. I painted all the plastics on my old warrior and it not only looked great but never really showed any scratches,etc. It doesnt chip or anything nor when you bend it. I reccomend it.

Ya just take your time with prep work and lots of coats it should come out nice. Taking time is KEY to a great finish.

make sure you use an adhesion promotor and treat the plastic before spraying it.

I used some fusion on my tank cover onb my shee , the First time I painted it , It came out great -- Needless to say the screws that hold the tank cpver down either fell out or I forgot to put them back inand the paint rubbed away after about a month or so .... Painted it agian and didn't do prep work and it bubbled up so Now I have to do it agian . But I would recomend using it just like everyone says its all in prep and patience !
