thats what i was thinking, also want to paint my rad cover, did you take half of the bolts out, paint, then replace and do the other half?

not jesting, i find after a year of riding, soon as i see salt on the road i tend not to ride my good bike and the hack comes out,
cleaning the bolts only makes them worse, as the finish comes off
clean then, copper grease the threads, bolt them up then paint them, 2 coats seems to do the trick, doesnt flake!
or get them refinished or buy some nice stainless bolts off ebay, im not a fan of silver, stealth is the future!!! so i self pimp!!!
my v4 is already showing rust from being caught out in the rain
i beleieve in preventative mearsures rather than spending my time painting bolts lol !
i have recently devoloped a love for acf50, i still paint my bolts lol
