Powder Coat Repair Question
What do you guys typically use to repair small rock dings in the powdercoat? My forks are getting nicked up with little pinhole dings from small road debris. Pinhead sized, but the sliver behind the coating is showing, and I don't want it to get worse. Thanks in advance.

Probably not worth it unless you have lots of chips or dings, but you can buy the actual powder coat in half pounds or pounds from a few places (powderbuythepound.com, allpowderpaints.com, powder365.com, etc.). It's cheap. If you mix a little powder with some MEK you can make a paste to fill in the damaged areas. Let it dry, then lightly sand and buff and it'll look good as new.

There's a few different ways to mix up a quick touch up but using MEK by itself will never cure the powder. After the MEK dries the powder will just smear right off or around

I think I'll get some black 2 part epoxy and a small brush. then cover with clear protective film on the forks. It should work. I have the 3M clear protectors on my wife's car, and I'll say I'm impressed. It takes a rock ding and hasn't chipped the paint under it yet. Thanks for the advice guys.
