slice Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 You can paint the forks in situ but it's never going to be as good a job as taking the wheel out and doing it that way. I mean by the time you have masked everything up and got it so you get no over spray you could have taken the wheel out mudguard off and finished it! Best advice, remove wheel, mask top of stanchion, sand it down and spray it, job done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
