Title: Textured Paint Post by Dave on 06/18/14 at 04:03:36 I am posting this so you might know that there is a textured paint that appears to work pretty well. It is Rustoleum, and I used it to paint the "Tip Over" wings on my Honda. The previous owner had dropped the bike and these plastic parts were badly scratched and gouged. I used a filler made for plastic bumpers, primed the plastic, then applied this paint in black. Be sure to hold the can back about 16" while spraying to accomplish the texture. I am happy with the way they turned out....and it saved me $ 75 by not having to buy new ones. Since it is a spray can it most likely won't hold up to fuel. It might work great for you on things like headlight or tail light housings, fenders, fork yokes, etc. |

Title: Re: Textured Paint Post by BalingWire on 06/18/14 at 06:10:44 For around the farm here, I keep a gallon of black Hammerite Rust Cap from Jamestown Distributors, which dries with a shiny textured "hammered finish." With hazmat shipping, it's $100+ per gallon, but it really works to keep things a little less "rat" in appearance. If you get some, use disposable brushes, not your expensive china bristles! The stuff is so fiber-filled and gooey that I've given up on cleaning out brushes, and just toss them. |
