Thanks,
Yeah, I did it myself. But I wouldn't do it again. I just happened to paint my daughters bike as well so I figured I do them both at the same time. I have an HPLV gun that I used for woodworking but this time I just went with spray can Rustoleum. Coarse grit dry sound paper to take off the old paint and then some 320 grit wet sand. Color coats were Rustoleum from Home Depot and then some light sanding in between coats. Last coat was gloss clear coat on the blue, flat coat on the black.
The painting is easy part. Its the bike disassembly and sanding that's the most time consuming.
