lowlyworm on January 28, 2026 10:02 pm Good from far, far from good. Sounds like you got more than $18 worth to me.
biz_wig on January 28, 2026 10:14 pm I used this same colorshift on my road bike! The color has faded a good bit and it’s chipped a lot :/. https://preview.redd.it/gzhh1f0jz5gg1.jpeg?width=1242&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=4d0302ff737bf6475c9ae2dadb2f6fb834c4d01f I used one of rustoleum’s black metal primers and an enamel clear coat. Don’t know what I should’ve done differently to keep the effect at 100% for longer.
