It is pretty simple...
1.Grind the welds as smooth as possible.
2.Apply plastic filler (Bondo)
3.Sand smooth (I used 80 grit and then 120 grit)
4.Apply filler primer and block sand until satisfied
5.Apply sealer primer and topcoat :wink:

I just reprimed and guide coated the frame. I will let that setup for a couple of days. Then I will wet sand it to my satisfaction. Then comes the hard part, color choice :?
Any suggestions guys :?:
I am kinda leaning towards a bright blue flake or perhaps a redish orange...

Well, in all honesty, I must say...........I liked it better before. Something about the fatter tires and that lime green accent color. Oh well, it's not my bike anyway!
