In response to your comment regarding the brand of paint. You should be concerned regarding the manufacturer of the paint. There are no formulas for Lacquer from PPG and they wrote the current HD color formulas, The motor company uses Urethane base/clear PPG and nothing else. If you buy the correct color from some co other than PPG you are getting a formula "redo". This is where they take the actual PPG color and use a light method and make a formula to use there mixing colors. Works great, but not as well as the ORIGINAL formula written by the ORIGINAL paint manufacturer. Harley does not make paint, nor do they use Lacquer. Why you would even consider using or worrying about an inferior product is beyond me, and why I am taking time to respond is also beyond me. I have painted HD parts for Warranty, new bags etc. The PPG colors match, no tinting necessary, Just a very good deal. Never buy pre-mixed paint from a Bike company, Harley or whoever, Have a qualified tech at a reputable paint store or body shop, use the correct formula and a digital scales and mix what you need and use the specified hardner, activator, clear and reducer. Then the color will last indefinitely, gas will not stain it, it won't crack etc. Now that you have every ones opinion go to your dealer, find out who does there warranty/repair refinish work and go to them for another opinion.
