Nice job. Alan Gunn redid my sterring wheel and your looks as good as his professional job. Does anyone know how to safely remove the horn pad from the frame to have the frame refinished?


That is a good question. I'm not sure this is feasible. That is one of the reasons I didn't paint the wings.

I guess you guys simply mask the pad when you do this?

Oh yeah, as for paint on the spokes, rattle can, primer + two coats of satin black. I believe Mr Kona had a more specific paint for this, but I'm happy with it. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer.gif)

I used Grey-Black from Wolfsburg West. I read somewhere (maybe here, maybe Pelican) that it was a good match for the original paint.
