Very Nice....
Very nice....
What did you use the paint the leansteer? Did you strip off all the paint? We have 6 white leansteers that badly need to be repainted.. Any ideas would be great... Quote:

Painting

Coated it with vinegar and let it set. (This is supposed to help the primer adhere to the aluminum.) Scrubed it down and let it dry. I primed and sanded with automotive primer. Then spray painted with Krylon Flourescent green (3 coats) Applied the decals. Applied 3 coats of clear coat. I am very happy with the results. |

I'm very glad I got black, for the durability. It'll never look as nice as yours does right now, but it'll never look as bad as some I've seen. :eek::) |

Yeah, I'm pretty hard on my Segway and this is the second paint job but I enjoy doing it. Gives me something to do in the winter.

Anyway, it sounds like you have fun on both ends of the deal -- painting it, and then messing it up again! |
@Mamrax:
Nice job, paint looks great. I would personally prefer to have the electronics and the batteries hidden from sight, but I don't know how big they are in your case, so it might be that you can't hide them. @emrnyc: Why don't you powder-coat them? I understood that powder coating is much stronger than paint. |
