My new "red 98 blaster" Is really a purple 95 blaster!

[ScottSchwarzer]

So I decided to strip the paint off of my plastics and after a couple cans of carb cleaner later It went from this:

To this!

Also, I looked at the serial number and it is a 95 i guess the guy didn't know much about what he had. They only made the purple and yellow for two years right?

Thanks! It took about four hours no lie to do it all because it had two coats of paint up there.

Wow the purple looks great , I'll trade you white for purple haha , my ole lady told me i had to post the part about the trade haha , Purple Rules man !

There was a little can of polish we use at the shop for cleaning up metals and fiberglass so when i was done with the removing i smeared it all over the plastics with my fingers then took a microfiber cloth and buffed it out. It turned out way better than I expected. And tell her I told you to get off the hip and buy her some! haha

Oh! It'd look wild on yours. I still have the red grips that came with it and they look out of place now haha. The polish is called Major Shine. We sell it for marine use for $8.95 a can.

Looks like it did a good job on those purples !!

 

[ScottSchwarzer]

Thanks! It definitely did. It cleaned all of the old paint smudges off and everything. The plastics are scratched up but you can't tell from a far. No big deal though because i ride trails anyways. I just wanted it to be all original and the paint was chipping already in multiple places. I wouldn't paint them because of that reason anyways.

nice it makes me wanna go offer my neighbor some money for his blaster, he has had the exact same purple blaster just sitting outside doing nothing for over 2 years now, what a wast of a blaster...

 

[ScottSchwarzer]

Dang that's really sad. I hate to see a four wheeler, especially a blaster, sitting outside collecting rust.
