dirty-boi Posted April 26, 2009 Report Share Posted April 26, 2009 I would just like to congratulate Onza on the strength of their paint!I've just bought my first frame, a T-pro, it's a bit tatty so I decided I'm going to respray it.Well I got out the Nitro-Mor's a splashed it on, all this did was debadge it.Next I tried sand paper, even the extra course stuff barely scuffed it.Has anyone successfully managed to strip a T-pro "the new dark grey model" if so what did you use?I think my next weapon of choice will be a heat gun.

Miffting Posted April 26, 2009 Report Share Posted April 26, 2009 With the nitromors did you paint brush it on leave it for 5 - 10 minutes and then wipe it down or hose it down? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dirty-boi Posted April 26, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 26, 2009 With the nitromors did you paint brush it on leave it for 5 - 10 minutes and then wipe it down or hose it down?Yes, longer actually, it brought the logos straight off but the paint didn't flinch.I've got the non drip jelly stuff, the only thing that was successfully burnt off was my skin.

siyross Posted April 27, 2009 Report Share Posted April 27, 2009 By the sounds of it your frame is powdercoated. It is designed to be very strong but also flexible. I would check out to see if there are any shot blasters in your area.Bob jackson cycles do it for a fairly good price.www.bobjacksoncycles.co.ukHope this helps.

Jack Morton Posted April 27, 2009 Report Share Posted April 27, 2009 With the nitromors did you paint brush it on leave it for 5 - 10 minutes and then wipe it down or hose it down?Achaully you brush it on leave it until it start's to bubble up then brush some more on leave for 5 - 10 minute's although dont let it dry then wipe down Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
