Hi folks,

Any recommendations for a good paint to use on my 2009 front forks in silver?

Eurocarparts have wheel paint which I would imagine is good and strong against chipping https://www.eurocarparts.com/ecp/p/...0_p9adt-mnS2FelLZ_nHumjF81XLDAckaAks5EALw_wcB

So has anyone got another recommendation?

Thanks
Mark

Smoothrite silver should do it.

There used to be "forks in a can" on fleabay..apparently its what the dealers use.

Not sure if its still available but maybe worth a search.
