Plasti Dipped my Windscreen

[Raptorman53]

I decided to plasti-dip my windcreen after my Puig screen cracked and I didn't want to spend the money to replace it. Here are some pics.

Looks pretty cool and innovative! Shiny on the outside. :BLAA:

i'm curious how that'll hold it in the hot summer sun.

The good thing about plasti-dip is if it starts to look crappy you can just peel it off.

That's funny I'm actually going to do this with my friends screen on Monday. Seems like the perfect application for plasti-dip.

thats great! I was thinking about doing that to my screen but wasn't sure how it would turn out. Thanks for the pics as it is definitely motivating to try it out on mine.

I like the looks of the trimmed screen too. I've been kicking around the idea myself.

Sweet look!

I've been looking for a spray tint kit...not come across any in shops yet. Not sure if I like the idea of total black-out rubber but who cares about practicality when it looks that good!

Ugh, today the same thing happend to me, I was cleaning the bike and I must have flexed the screen too much cleaning above the gauges. The tinted screen that came with the bike snapped right above where the bottom screw goes in between the headlights. That screen, I think it's a Puig, looked really good. The P.O. gave me the stock screen too, but it was covered in old duct tape from a for sale sign. After about an hour of rubbing and scraping with wd40, I got it clean. It looks awful compared to the tinted screen.

The screen that came on the bike:

the cleaned up stock screen:

I might need to try the plasti-dip on the stocker.

Interested to find how it does with bug clean up. Looks good!

 

[Raptorman53]

The bugs clean off just fine. You only need to spray the inside, which leaves the outside easy to clean. I also plasti-dipped the windscreen on a friend fz6r. I'll see if I can find some pics of it and post up.
