Lower fork tube ?
reklessj:
So while I was cleaning my bike today I noticed that when I got lodged in the rocks at the D38 GP, I scratched up my lower fork tube. Doesn't feel real rough and don't see any leaking from seals yet but coating is down to dull metal. What should I do? Run it till I have an issue, that's the way I normally roll? Who does a good job of recoating?
reklessj:
Right on, I knew I liked your style!!

Fill in with clear nail polish and then polish smooth.

What would I smooth it with?
bandit88:
I would oil some high grit sandpaper, something like 1500-2000. Done that in the past on some old 70s enduros and it worked out well. Just take it slow and check your work periodically with your fingernail.
