    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

tremclad anyone?

hello all,

I thought that I would just go on record by admitting that I am lazy when it comes to painting. I know how to paint a bike properly (prep work is everything), but like I said, I am lazy. It is quite literally painfull for me to prep something properly. I am getting ready to paint my gs 850, and feel compelled to use a rust paint such as Tremclad. I know some of you may cringe at the thought of using such a paint, but I just want to repaint it and ride it. I have cleaned off 99% of the old paint and rust, have primed with Proform self etching primer, and would just like a finish that will look not too bad, and be fairly resistant to chips and rust. Could you share your experiences will rattle can makeovers. :wink:

Thanks Very Much
 
It will take days to weeks for the paint to harden. I painted my car with it using an electric spray guy and it took several weeks...
