I decided to paint my exhaust and see how it goes....looks great...I'll try to post pics when I figure out how...they always say file to large...I get pissed and then say...... header paint and some sandpaper...works great....

 

What color did you use? Let us know how it holds up.

 

Here is what two guys told me to do about the pics, I tried the first and it worked, I have not tried the second: (Good luck)

Jack of hearts, if your pics are too big you can upload em onto photobucket.com and then get the image code. Then copy and paste the image code onto the thread and make sure to change where it says [IMG] to [IMG] and [/IMG] to [/IMG] and it will show up with little issue.


I am guessing you have your pics stored in my pics? Dont matter wherever they are on your PC, highlight them and click file in the upper left corner(assuming thats where it is on your PC again) then scroll down 5 spaces to where it says resize, you can pick the largest on eit will still fit on the forum, hit that and it will create a smaller pic in the same folder as the original that will be sized to post... So easy a caveman could do it.

 

welll....here goes nothing.....

Thanks to you guys for helping me out..I have other prejects on the burner for the bike...now i can get the pics posted!!

 

does it work????

 

Sure does!!! Thanks!

So what kind of prep did you do on the chrome before you painted it?

 

I used some 100 grit sandpaper and sanded away to a brushed look, washed with windex and a sock and thenpainted...there was another guy who used grill paint which is the same stuff...We'll see how long it holds up....if it doesn't, I'll try something different... 3 coats with a full day to dry in between..

 

What kind of sock did you use to wash it, tube or ankle?



Looks nice!

 

better.....government issue!!!

 

Those look great dude. I was thinking about powder-coating a bunch of parts on my bike and the exhaust was a questionable one for me. But looking at your bik, it looks fantastic with the pipes that color.
