Application
For a 1200 Sportster type engine you need two color sprays and one primer.
It depends on which components you have to paint and the background colour.
If you have a silver gray engine we recommend getting 3.
This application is valid both for engines and for metal or light alloy pieces
This paint attacks directly and without the need for a primer, but remember that you can still use it if you want to avoid the formation of oxide over the years. Always consider that the paint has the ability to adhere to all metals but does not have anti-oxidant characteristics, therefore it can adhere but will not be able to stop any long-term rust or oxide formation.
1 Scrape off any rust if there is any
2 Scrape off the old paint if it comes off
3 If the engine is bare metal, clean it thoroughly with our aircraft cleaner
4 If the original paint is in good condition, lightly scratch it with 600 grit sandpaper and then 800 dry or wet
5 Dry well and always degrease with an aeronautical cleaner
6 Shake the can
7 Apply a light coat of varnish and wait 5 minutes
8 Apply a heavier coat of paint and wait until it becomes completely opaque, there is no precise time because it depends on the temperature of the place where you are. Let's just say you'll have to wait about 10 to 20 minutes
9 Apply another loaded coat and this will also be the last
10 Wait 12 hours to assemble the pieces and for it to be resistant to petrol
You can also apply a matt clear coat to give greater resistance to petrol and greater protection
NOTE: the two full coats depend on who applies and one thing is certain not to overdo it, because if you do it the paint risks drying badly. We always advise you to do some tests first.
