Restoring Motomags...

(1/1)

bigfatolly:
Has anyone ever managed to replace a piece of webbing or repaired a crack on a set of Motomags?
Looking to get a set but the cheaper ones need a bit of resto,I know they are made of strange metal but is it able to be welded?
Also can they be powder coated?

fischflo:
yup - Oldboyburner welded some spare web to his knackered motos, looksky sweet! Don't know whether he then painted or powdered em black, tho.. :(

oldschoolace:
If you are powder coating them it's not much of a problem to get some Ali cut and welded in place but if you want the original finish its going to be difficult without a few spare bits of webbing. You could experiment with different shot media or even oven pride on new Ali to get that slight cast look about them.

sawzall:
