When he does come over I take his phone of him aswell and check everything. NOW BACK ON TOPIC, if I remover my front and rear windscreen, will the air going straight through make me go faster as less wind resistance?

Impellor Member 835 Member For: 14y 6m 18d Gender: Not Telling Posted 01/06/12 02:39 AM Share Posted 01/06/12 02:39 AM But I think what tab is getting at, even though its pretty obvious but anyway...its fkn 1.6kg off 4 rims! Wtf paint is that? 10 layers also?To answer your question most spray packs/cans are 400ml. Now you have a rough cast wheel (which needed to be sanded 12 times, after you have removed all paint) that has primer filler, colour and clear coat. Now I'm unaware of the specific gravity of paint but lets say 1ml = 1gm.. I also consider this is conservative because I would think that paint has a higher specific gravity than water. Is it unreasonable to think that when painting 4 wheels that you would use a total of 4 cans. 1 for filler, 1 for clear coat and 2 for colour Therefore 4 X 400ml = 1.6 kgs. Do you still think there would need to be 10 coats? Further, this doesn't take into consideration that you are sanding the wheel 12 times. Hopefully this makes sense.As I have previously stated the wheels were polished for looks not weight reduction. But I was interested in the weight difference, because I understand the benefits of reducing static weight. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
