I quite fancy having a go myself, even though it would cost alot in equipment. Its worth it as i like learning new skills, very enjoyable.

Back to this bodge, its hard to know how much laquer to use. Also, the rubbing compound just takes off laquer it seems! This stuff is no replacement for the two part urethane and hardener the pros use.

Yep, ill be getting some sliders soon too

You'll need at least 5 thin layers of clear, then you have to leave it to harden or it will just come off when polishing.

I'd leave it at least a month then polish it with a rotary mop and a fine compound.

Oops, never mind. There's only two types of biker mate. Those that have been down and those that are going down! You've popped your cherry, well done!

Anyone used this?
