steeley or AF?
looks good
still will scratch and scuff
If you need to weld, will have to remove, best way i've found is burn off the paint.
At least with black you can souch up with a rattle can.
is it a garage queen or are you going to treat it like 2strokeforever

Then skip the PC and polish the frame up. maybe not to a mirror finish, but something that looks nice, and is easy to attack with some never-dull to keep looking fresh.

Polished looks like crap in 5 minutes.
Want something different???
I'd "Rhino Line" it....

Man I wouldn't Rhino line it, I did that to one of my steel frames, it looked cool and held up well but because it is kind of rubbery when you get a crack going it will hide under the coating until it fully snaps and then ruins a riding day. When I pulled back the rhino lineing for repair the crack had rust which meant it had been going a while. That was my experience with it anyway.

I have polished other frames and agree it looks like crap very high maintance.. I thought about a linex or something like that but wondered if it was to thick? i will have to look more into it.

I like the turf!!! Also I wasn't trying to shoot down your Rhinolineing Idea just had the personal experience and would not do it again.
