Coating and Painting

The useful Klever Quick-Bluing fluid is the perfect way for bluing ferrous steel (up to 3% chromium). Ideal for small parts or to restore the surface on larger components. The result comes very close to a parkerized finish so the product is perfectly suited for classic HDs. In particular when you forgot to add some nuts and bolts during your last large parkerizing process. Can easily be brushed on cold.

Rust inside the motorcycle tank can significantly affect the function and safety of your Harley. Even small rust particles can break off and enter the fuel system, clogging the carburetor, fuel injection system, and fuel lines.
The four-part complete system from the German company Busch can sustainably clean, de-rust, and seal all common motorcycle tanks. Even heavily rusted tank interiors with hairline cracks or small holes can be effectively treated. The tank sealer used is highly efficient and can be applied multiple times within 8 to 12 hours, increasing the sealing effectiveness and significantly extending the tank’s lifespan.

Formerly Kreem, now KRM: Recommended for older gas tanks which are rusty or dirty on the inside. Tank prep A & B remove corrosion and prepare the surface for the KRM Sealer. The Sealer cures hairline cracks (not holes!) and its tough white skin permanently seals the tank and permanently protects it against rust. One bottle contains enough sealer for tanks up to 13 liters capacity.
