Maintenance
Custom building and custom painting
The BOBLBEE 20L is built to be a long lasting
companion with little requirement of mainte-
nance. Wipe the product clean regularly and
make a visual inspection that no cracks or dents
are visible in the plastic shell. Check that
stitching and buckles are intact.
Exchange any part that is defect to maintain a
workable product. Point 65 offers service of parts
through our distributors or shops.
If disassembled make sure that all parts and
components are reassembled correctly.
The shell can crack at high impact, and is design
to do so to absorb energy. Exchange shell im-
mediately, even if it is a small crack. Extensive
use can result in numerous small scratches, that
eventually will decrease the protective character-
istics of the product. Prevent the shell from being
scratched, and exchange the shell after extensive
use, even if it is intact.
Over the years we have seen incredible creativ-
ity in terms of fitting equipment to the shell
construction and state of the art custom painting
to match your motorcycle.
One must be aware
though, that any alteration to the original product
may seriously affect its protective characteristics,
and must be done at your own risk.
The lacquers
used by Point 65 for the original painting, have
been designed to minimize chemical affect on
the plastic.
If you never the less choose to
paint your shell, make sure to
use paints and primers that are
suitable for the application and
non-aggressive. Avoid aggressive solvents and
consult information for paints that are suitable
for the plastic type.
• DO NOT ALTER, PAINT OR MODIFY THE PRODUCT AS IT WILL AFFECT IT´S
PROTECTIVE CHARACTERISTICS. ANY ALTERATION TO THE PRODUCT IS
DONE AT YOUR OWN RISK.
• DO NOT CLEAN WITH SOLVENT. DO NOT PAINT.
• EXCHANGE DAMAGED PARTS, AND INSPECT REGULARLY FOR DEFECTS.
• PREVENT THE SHELL FROM BEING SCRATCHED, AND EXCHANGE IF HEAVILY
SCRATCHED, EVEN IF INTACT.
• For disassembling screws and nuts; use M5TORX
screw driver and M5 key for nuts.
For reassembling; make sure that the nylon lock of
the nut is tightened onto the screw.
The nylon lock will become weaker after repetitive
assembly.
• For painting, use water based paints if possible. Today
water based paints have good adhesion, are friendly
to the environment and reduce the risk of weakening
the plastic.
Advice; test your paints on the inside of the shell, in the
bottom area that will be covered with the harness.
Cut small lines with an X-acto knife, to make a cross
pattern 1 x 1 mm in the test paint, apply paint paper
tape, pull quickly to see if the adhesion is OK.
• For adding additional buckles/screw holes, drill hole
with 6 mm. Wood type cutting drill head. Do not
push, let the drill do the job.

* Shells that are lacquered in general have higher resistance. If you intend to test a solvent or primer for painting,
test on a small lacquered area that is underneath the rails, to make sure the paint does not react.
