I'm building my 72 K1 forks, the shop manual says to use DEXRON type ATF or 15W in the forks. I have some Castrol type F ATF that I used on my 750, will that be ok in the CT 70 forks? I'm also installing new seals and stiffer springs from Dr. ATV.
PAINTING WOES: I shot my CT in Honda kandy ruby red. The base coat and color coats when on ok. But my clear coat orange peeled badly. I think it may have got too warm in my garage? I think it got to 90 degrees that morning. I wet sanded with 1200 and tried polishing compound but now there are very small white specks in the clear? It almost looks like tiny bits of the polishing paste are imbedded in the clear coat? My trouble shooting guide says to check gun pressure. It may have been too low and not enough material was flowing? I have more clear and may try to shoot the clear again. Any help or hints would be appreciated.
Thanks
Rick
