Has anyone been able to match the Silver paint on the
frame and swingarm to a touch-up paint code? My
AutoZone down the road has about a dozen silvers
(colorRite and Duplo??something I think it is). I
would appreciate knowing the manufacturer and code if
you have had success in this area.
Thanks,
Brad A9

I just used Aluminum paint in a spray can purchased at
a local hardware store. Looked fine, seems to last as
well.

Brad:
Having just made saddlebag supports for my KLR I know for a fact that
Dupli-Color Steel Finish Wheel Paint matches PERFECTLY. I got mine
at an auto parts store but saw the same thing later at Wal Mart.
Hope this helps.

In a fit of artistic rage I sprayed the header pipe heat shield with a
rattle can of KRYLON #1402 Hi-Temp Aluminum. Got 2 surprises; 1) It looked
good (IMHO), and 2) The color and semi-gloss finish matched the
frame/swingarm perfectly!

I wire brushed and painted my muffler about a year or so ago. Still
doing good. Din't paint the head pipe though. It's still factory
black.

How far do you have to "march" and where do you put the nail? :]
