Title: Heat shield repaint
Post by: CROSSBOLT on June 16, 2020, 01:26:57 PM
Happened again! Stopped at an intersection, her left training wheel hits my muffler! Repainted last year or before, gotta repaint again! Got the paint, now have to find the #600 grit paper....

Training wheels on a scoot? Or are you taking a bike pace.

Tow-Pac outrigger wheel kit add-ons. Same kit as for Harley except for detail attachments.

Nice match. Far superior to my car hood repair where I forgot matched touch-up paint doesn't match after 23 years of fading on the original.

Well, actually this IS touch-up paint from O'reilly Auto parts! It is matte grey metallic in place of the original matte bronze metallic!

The paint is "Duplicolor" "Perfect Match" from O'Reilly's Auto parts, #BFM0360 Dark Shadow Grey (Cx) Replaces T299. It is a Ford  color. Nice nozzle for a rattle-can. 8 ounce can has a little left for touch up. If I can find it when I need it!

Looked in logbook for what was used in 2016 for paint and it was the same brand but the number was BGM0522. Looks the same!

Good thing Kymco put covers on that muffler and pipe! That one fugly muffler! Har, har!

They skimped on the agility and used a 2 inch by 6 inch heat shield strip. Yes, ugly muffler.
