Care of Motorcycle Paint
For washing the motorcycle, use a weak stream of cold or warmed water. Do not remove dust and mud
by rubbing the surface with a dry cloth, as sand particles will scratch the surface and the paint will
rapidly lose its brilliance. While washing, do not use soda solution, kerosene or mineral oils. If the
surface is stained with mineral oil, degrease by wiping with a rag. If after removal of mud and dust
with a jet of water, some dirt is left on the surface, remove it with the help of a sponge, a soft hair brush
or a flannel rag and water, but do not allow separate water drops to dry out on the surface. Finally,
polish the painted surfaces with a dry soft flannel.
The painted surfaces of the motorcycle feature natural gloss. If some dull spots appear, remedy them
by polishing as follows. Take a well mixed solution of wax polishing compound and having washed
the dull spots thoroughly, smear a thin film of the compound over the surface with a polishing cloth.
Rub the polishing compound with circular motions. After 3-5 minutes of drying, wipe the surface with
a clean dry piece of polishing cloth until a luster appears.
To repair painted areas, each motorcycle is furnished with a bottle of touch-up paint. Nitroenamels
dissolve or dilute with acetone and dry out readily when exposed to air at typical shop temperatures.
For repairing paint, proceed as follows:
•
clean the surface with solvent or turpentine to remove any wax
•
wet sand the damaged spot with waterproof sandpaper of 250 to 280 grit
•
paint the area with primer, and spot putty as needed
•
wet sand again and dry thoroughly
•
thin the touch-up paint with turpentine or acetone and apply
