I am about to the point I am ready to paint my frame and triple tree ,for my Sandcast 750, and have a few questions I hope to get some input on. It seems like the triple tree has maybe a flat finish on the top and gloss/semi gloss on the bottom. Is this correct? What paint have others used? I have read that when you paint aluminum you need to use self etching primmer. Is this correct. I have bead blaster my triple tree to remove all the old paint. So far I am leaning towards using Eastwood Extreme Chassis Black. Has anyone used this? For the frame should I use gloss, high gloss, etc? Sorry for all the questions but wanted to get as correct a finish as possible. Thanks for any input.
