    I watched this vid a couple of years back and have been polishing my airbrush needles this way since. It's saved a couple of my old airbrushes, so thanks. One more step I've only learned recently is to use an oil with Teflon in it. (I use WD40 Dry Lube with Teflon as it was the only one I found when i went looking but it works fine.) When done with polish, I wipe it down with a few drops of the oil on a rag, and it really helps with tip drying as well.

    A very helpful video thanks. Mine slid off the stand, breaking the clutch lever and bar end cap last week. The gear shifter was also bent. I managed to straighten the shifter and I'm about to do the lever. The non OEM lever was £GB6 and the cheap looking OEM end cap was £GB18!

    budget doesn't always mean rattle cans, I have found that rattle cans are actually more expensive than buying paint by the quart and spraying with a gun. For that same amount of money you can buy paint by the quarts and spray more than one project with it, Sand paper and masking tape are your actual biggest expenses!

    Hiya Mackie, just watched the video with Eric-what can I say, what a guy! I've just turned 60, and I hope I can still be like him when I hit 80. Don't think my kids and grandchildren would approve, but, hey, what the f**k. Saying that, my granddaughter Elle would definitely approve as she is a rebel-just turned 18 and has had a massive tattoo on her side/hip. Go girl!! How long have you had the Harley?
