Good job guys, making a good little living out of what you are doing and fixing them up right. Most folks would have never drilled out and tapped that exhaust cover bolt so props to ya bro. Keep it up!
Really a very cool video and very well presented for the everyday guy! I like to see this stuff come alive again and iam actually restoring my father's 03 700 twin sportsman, so a big thanks to you on some really helpful direction. Definitely will watch more. God bless young man!
I have an old ATV and kid size snowmobile badly faded, but both working great. Painting them will get me several hundred dollars more - great video. Also: Use wet Mr. Clean Magic Eraser pads on all Vinyl seats. They work in seconds. Keep a bowl of water to ring out the pad every minute or so.
Props to you for your hustle.. Do you know what that bike looks like now? The paint has faded and chipped off. That degreaser works amazing on seats!!! .......It also sucks every last drop of oils out of it. That seat has crackled right off the foam + all that degreaser and super aggressive scrubbing put the degreaser into the foam, destroying it also by now . Did you change and flush the oils? New filter? Check all the bearings and most importantly ball joints? That quad will kill someone in a split second. You are young and learning, hopefully everything I've pointed out , you now realize. Keep up the hard work.
You need promoter and also sand down before just with some scotch pads or it won’t last it will just chip off after. The most important is the plastic promoter.
everytime im doing projects and wondering if i should make a video and upload it, i always disreguard it and abandon the idea cuz i feel im not good enough or the production value wont be good enough to guide ppl through the process..... then i see video like this.... as rimedial as it gets. a kid spray painting his quad plastic on a tarp in his yard.... ya... lol. keep on keepin on.
All you had to do was take a heat gun to it and it would have went back to the original color. Without an adhesion promoter it’s not gonna hold up. It will scratch easily.
how long does this last? wanna do this to my whole atv. gonna prime it first the. use the paint and then clear coat. sanded everything down. any info on doing this would be great man!!
Why would you leave the old stickers on? Gonna look pretty ghetto. Acetone or Isopropyl Alcohol will clean that seat faster and better without damaging the material unless it is very worn.
If you want you could use a heat gun or a propane torch and heat the plastics up. It will draw out the original color and you don’t have to worry about cracking or the spray paint coming off!
