Default Re-paint


Any of you guys re-painted your rides lately? I’m looking at having my 2006 street bob done and wondered if anybody has a rough idea of how many pints / quarts I’ll need. I’m painting fenders, tank and air filter cover. Thanks in advance

I just redid a street bob for a customer/buddy and took roughly a quart for fenders, gas tank, side covers, and quarter fairing.
