Before i was told how to use this method i always used to touch up powder coated parts with model making enamel paint. dries really hard and nearly always a perfect colour match as you can get it in so many different colours.

Reading all this, if one is pretty short
of cash and has 4 motorbikes to feed.
For a frame respray that is gonna stand up
and be cost conscious:
sand blast it
rust treat ( I would use my usual phosphoric acid treatment)
baked enamel locally or rattle can.
I reckon with rattle cans it would cost
50? minimum.

I?ve always used spray can epoxy from the local grocery store. Might cost 12 to 20 to do a frame. Unless your frame is heavily chipped or rusted you can scotchbrite scuff it and shoot it. Let it dry in the sun and you?ll see great results. Smaller parts that are not dimensional or have a machined area you can dip in a can of gloss black rustoleum. I hang my parts over the can to drip dry. As a long time restorer of high level Mopars I found that little things like this can save a lot of money with acceptable results.
