    Hey all...while I was in the process of changing our my Street Cup Clubman bars for a set of Bitwell low Tracker bars I decided to colorfill the "Triumph" logo on the handlebar clamp. It is a really easy process and works with probably just about anything you want to colorfill, if anyone is interested. Cheers!!

    I didn't know if anyone would be interested but glad you are! The process is super-simple:

    1. Clean the part to be color-filled with isopropyl alcohol or some other suitable cleaner.
    2. Use Testor's (or equivalent model paint...any color you want).
    3. Fill in the recessed writing, design, etc. that you want with a small brush. I use a small artist brush because I like it neat and tidy but you can use any small brush.
    4. Allow to dry for several hours.
    5. Use a small bit of solvent (I use Hoppes 9 gun cleaner) using your fingertip on a rag to wipe away the extra paint.

    EASY! You now know how to colorfill anything!
