I'm thinking about it but word of warning, first time I used 2 pack I sprayed some cases in the corner of my workshop well away from the bikes but nevertheless all of them had a (thankfully invisible) matt layer of I don't know what on them. T-cut took it off but, I was not prepared for that.

The top yoke appeared to have been clear coated by the factory and being cast Aluminium rather than machined not really suitable for anodising (so I'm told) so I followed suit

As its so much harder wearing than normal lacquer I purchased 2k clearcoat in an aerosol can, the funky type that has a plunger in the bottom to activate it's contents and what you don't use turns to a solid lump within a few hours, nice smell though kinda reminded me of the sweets [candy] Palma Violets we had back in the 1970's.

Also did the fork legs at the same time which might have been a big mistake as there is tarnishing appearing under the coating and I could end up stripping it back off
