Wilsons Sandbox

Good deal. Your first post about the fusion paint prompted me to go out and get some to paint my bike. I never could find the fusion so I when with black bumper paint. used with Bullfrog adhesion promotor. Works good. Holds up very well to brush and dirt under the fenders. It is not very chemical resistant. The scoops have been damaged by gasoline and locktight. Today I did one scoop with HardHat paint. It is not for plastic but I will see how well the Bullfrog adhesion promotor works with this paint. I am trying it because I used it on my gas tank and it resists the gasoline. I resisted the rattle can for long time and just lived with my Barbie KLR. Now she is semigloss black all over and looks "stealthy". I have found the rattle can liberating. I can see many cool color combos in the future. --- In DSN_klr650@yahoogroups.com, "David Wilhite" wrote:
