ok ok so i was going to do a how to about painting a bike for under $100 dollars....its been going great and comming out amazing.....then i was throwing some 55 gal drums in the bed of a truck and realized that even though they weigh 200 lbs. partially full theyre not even scuffing the truck.....YATZEE MAFUCKRZ~!

so i called this company speedliner(just like rhino liner but they use a tougher polymer and its easier to apply)

and guess what?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!??!

They told me to go return the remainder of my paint and bring THEM THE $100

i'll let you guys know in a week or two how it turns out....

Yeah, but would it protect the fairings from getting rashed? I know the paint is durable, but would the plastic fairings buckle underneath the coating?

Hmmmmm. If it would, this stuff would be great.

Got a update? And are you removing all plastics and having them shoot them or are you doing it?

Yeah me too, I saw a bike that was Rhinolined a while back, it had been in a wreck but the fairing looked pretty good considering how bad the wreck was. But it had that textured look. If Speedliner is just as good and can go on smooth then I'd get it on mine.
