Getting it to stick and stay is about prep. Sand first with 220 to give some mechanical adhesion, then wipe with alcohol to remove any mold release or oily residue. Then spray a coat of adhesion promoter. Then any topcoat will stick better. Make sure you use a paint that has a flex additive so the flexion of the plastic will not crack it. -Jeff Khoury ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jeff Saline" To: droth@roadrunner. com Cc: "DSN KLR650" ups.com> Sent: Sunday, March 28, 2010 3:25:54 PM GMT -08:00 US/Canada Pacific Subject: Re: [DSN_KLR650] Painting a KLR650 Dan, I think folks have had pretty good luck painting the plastics on the 87-07 bikes with Krylon Fusion rattle can paint.

The bedliner paint fits the KLR personality and is easy to add more when you get the inevital scratches. Paint the tank any way you want or get Jesse James to paint it. He may need the work soon as Sandra is most likely in a highly aggotated state and might be vindicative.
