I wonder if anyone has any ideas on this...
The Honda "Oyster Silver" Touch-up Paint on my BF130 turns to copper in spots after a year or two.
For prep, I did sand below the cover, then wiped it with acetone, let it dry, and then sprayed on a zinc chromate primer. After that dried, I sprayed on the Oyster Silver and sprayed that with the Honda Clear Coat after it had dried.
My twin thinks that the primer works best on bare aluminum, but I didn't sand it all the way down, so the primer did go on over old (but sanded) paint. I thought was more prep than most folks would do...
Any tips on how best to get the Honda Oyster Silver to "stay silver"???
