Troy~Lee~Shee Posted October 31, 2003 Report Posted October 31, 2003 My plastics were painted red and black by Troy Lee Designs a couple years before I got the bike, but now some places the gloss coat is just starting to peel away. I love the look and dont want to change to much about it. Is there any way I can stop the destruction before its too late! Quote

There is nothing you can do to stop it or repair it without damaging the color/paintwork below the clear. I would contact Troy Lee and see if he will repair it under a product failure. As long as its JUST the clear thats coming off. There are many different things that will cause it to happen, but it would come back to product failure or application failure. See what Troylee will do first. If he fails to do anything about it... Then you may want to do some touch up. (i can explain later) But I wouldnt do anything to it w/o first talking to Troylee to see if he will repair it. Quote
Troy~Lee~Shee Posted October 31, 2003 Author Report Posted October 31, 2003 Yeah thats what I would do if I had been the one that got it painted, but I have no reciepts or any kind of proof because the owner before me had it painted. The couple of patches are still pretty small, would stickers slow or stop the peeling? Quote
