Side stand and center stand paint info needed

[Lone_RT_rider]

I know there have to be some people who have touched up their stands with paint.  I did a search and couldn't find any info on this. I'm looking for rattle can info on what to touch up the paint on these stands.  I appreciate the help in advance.  :)

Shawn, I used some black semi gloss all in one Rustolium I had in the hazmat locker (not really a hazmat locker more like a chemical hazard locker!). Hit it with a brown scotch bright pad, de-greaser and went at it.

Any specific kind of degreaser? I'm familiar with the stuff you buy at Autozone.  Same basic stuff?

Yep it's in with the spray paint

Thanks Mike, much appreciated.

I would highly recommend 620-1415 Seymour MRO Industrial High-Solids Spray Paint, Gloss Black. This stuff is tough and looks great. I have done a few crash bars with the stuff.

With the sand blasting, wet and dry, that the sidestand and centerstand must endure (continuously), what about a "bed liner" type coating like Rhino Shield, only in a rattle can??

It turned out pretty good. It's a bit humid lately so I had a bit of a paint reaction that almost made it look like a cast piece or even a crinkle coat. It's good enough for me. :)
