i have a f2 streetfighter/stuntbike project that i am working on. one of the past owners spray painted the fairings while they were still on the bike . i have overspray on the frame and engine covers, anyone know of anything that will get the paint off without damaging the frame's finish too much.

 

if it is a stunt bike, why don't you get some metal paint, strip it down, and paint the frame flat black? my .02

 

i thought about it but i just sold my sv yesturday and want to be able to ride something, in the near future. with school i won't have time to fully strip a bike down.

 

Overspray can usually be buffed out with quality polish. Acetone will remove paint but be careful on painted surfaces.

Goof Off and plastics don't mix.

You could ride into a telephone pole if your not careful just as easy.

Oh yeah, maybe I should add that I know a guy that paints fairings and whatnot for a living and has used this product successfully. As with anything else you need to use a little caution and common sense.

 

its a steetfighter, only plastics on it is the tail. anyone know where to get that stuff?

 

Goof off works great. I used it to remove spray paint from a car once and it removed the spray paint and the base paint as well. Only use is on unpainted / unfinished surfaces.

 

i've tried regular goof off, and miniral spirits, neither of them worked
