PAINT CARE
To help keep up the appearance of your Bandit equipment and reduce the possibility of surface rust follow
these steps:
1. The machine should be washed on a regular basis with a non-abrasive mild detergent and then rinsed
thoroughly.
Do not pressure wash sensitive areas
like: decals, gauges, electronic devices, autofeed
control, etc.
2. If a stone chip, paint scratch, or paint crack occurs - it should be repaired immediately. Simply sand the
edgesofthedamagedpaintarea,maskoffthesurroundingarea,andapplyprimerandpainttothedry,
clean, and warm area. This will keep the damaged area from spreading or getting worse.
3. If you are unable to sand and mask the area, there are containers of primer and paint available. A small
brush can be used to touch up the area.
