Default Krylon Textured Black Spray

I know a lot of you paint your bikes, either powdercoat, rattle, or professional. I had spent a lot of time searching for reviews, pics, and the like for a great textured paint that matches the wrinkle black of the Street bob. I am posting this just for those who arent aware, because this is such a great product, and much easier and more durable than your typical flat black rattle (which I was trying to use before I bought the Krylon)

It matches the wrinkle black perfectly! So far I've only painted the battery cover band, however I'm sure come summer time, a lot more of my street bob is gunna be black!

Cheers!

I've been using it for about a year now.
Works well and while not an exact match to the wrinkle black, it's pretty damn close.
For 4.99 a can, you can spray alot of small parts with it rather than powdercoat them.

What kind of prep work do you need to do? I want to paint my air cleaner cover, derby cover, and a I have a few touch up spots on my primary.

Yep, I got a can, but am a little scared to screw with my bike. Going to try it on the battery cover silver strip, which really annoys me.

FYI - Painted mine last night. Had a little dripping on the sides. Going to let it dry real good, sand and paint again for the final. Looks REAL nice though.

I can see how the painting could become addicting. I'll get some pics up this weekend.
