Not perfect
This will be the final post for this paint repair with pictures. I'm happy with the results
.
Left side total
Inside right rear dropout. Some thin touch up on seat stay and chain stay. I was prone to leaving brush marks there.
Fork rear. Primer over previous splatter paint, though it blends alright. Wet sanding that out would go through the paint next to it even with a backer block.
Right side head tube. Best representation of progress overall.
Down tube damage. Splatter hides well. 😉
This should hide the damage well behind the chainrings.
Overall, the finish on this bike is good enough for a rider. I will make my own chips and scratches, and I'll know how to fix them.
