Hi TMF, just tried this out today myself. Works a treat. I've had a compressor for a while now (sand blasting, putting air in car tyres etc.). Got tired of pumping ACF50 by hand all over my bikes with the little atomiser that comes with the bottles. Bought a spray paint gun via Amazon for about £12 - what a difference to an otherwise tedious job. Big thanks for sticking to it (although I originally commented on Twitter that I would not persist on the air tool path).

Guess I'll be taking your advice again and picking up paint sprayer for my compressor. Thanks for yet another fine video.....

Something to note about ACF50: I looked in the garden sprayer bottle that I used a few months ago and the ACF50 has set solid. So make sure you store it in the bottle it comes in!

Its done maybe 15 miles from new, was washed after its maiden run, garaged an then washed as above, and thankfully ACF50'd.... the other two bikes are Italian and have nothing like the corrosion issues I could see with the BMW!

TMF thanks for the vid; I have been debating whether or not to invest in a compressor; now i'm convinced. With AFC 50 being a precious as myrrh I would think that a fugal spread using a compressor would pay for itself in a couple of seasons. With the added bonus of being able to use it for drying and tyre inflation etc.

It's a good idea to check out what pressure goes through the gun, I have one like yours & it's 45-55psi, you can set that on the compressor on the regulated gauge. The screw on the back of the gun is for paint flow & the one by the side is air , so you can get the right mix. I looked in to getting my Harley dine by an agent & it was going to involve travelling a 100 mile, paying 80quid, so I bought my 50litre compressor from Lidls for 90 & got a selection of tools , tyre gauge, spray gun, blow gun, & a paraffin gun (the ref one like yours) for 25 quid from Screwfix, just had to put connectors on the end. Well done you done a good job 👍👍😎

Hi TMF, glad it worked out for you this time. From past experience with spoked rims you should really get some ACF on those spokes and nipples, I’m not sure if they are stainless steel on the CRF?? If they are fine but if not I would recommend really getting something on them, I learnt the hard way. They can corrode really bad at this time of year. I take the wheel off and brake disc off and spray loads on my DRZ rims, then apply ACF grease to the nipples. Looks really awful but wash it off in spring and looks like a new rim still.

Good video TMF but...Instead of the spray gun try an air brush, they’re around £6-10 on Amazon. More accurate and you need less air pressure 20-30psi . Also, remove the wheels and do them by hand with a brush, spokes and hubs as well. If you need to removed the brake pads give them a good clean with brake cleaner and apply copper slip before putting back in, do the sliders as well. With the wheels removed you can spray the callipers and inside the swinging arm getting the ACF50 in all the right places. Remember to clean the discs with brake cleaner afterwards.

Oh the joys of your first compressor - you'll find all sorts of unnecessary uses for it . I just like the blokey tool involvement and the whole expanded tool buying opportunities - nail guns and impact wrenches etc. The only problem with them is the row they make. Too noisy for a workshop really. I pushed the boat out and bought a Jun-Air dental compressor - makes about the same noise as a fridge - opens up another world of possibilities. As ever another well crafted, informative vid.

It will prevent corrosion and rust very effectively, however it is not a paint; it is the consistency of a light lubricant. I apply it 2-3 times a year to my motorcycle. An excellent product.

Also take seats off and spray electrics and frame undeneath, use a detail brush to do the brake calliper metal and fasteners and wipe the wheels..the thickness of it helps not get on tyres and discs/pads. Certainly do the fasteners on the calipers if nowt else but i paint the whole caliper and the detailing brushes £5 on ebay for 5 dont fall apart and allow u to get behind the caliper. I spray all the underside of my plastics too and when you come to wash the mud/crud just slides off. In between acf 50 which i do twice a year i use gt85. Its briliant but does wash off so regular application required. Compressor air gun will also do the same job as your hoover drier😃

It was great to see you so excited when it worked. Do you coat a bike even if you don’t plan to use it over the winter months and what is the effect on the exhaust by way of any discolouration or staining. I bought a tin years ago but have never used it as I don’t ride this end of the year. I’m guessing it’s good to protect from condensation sitting on fasteners etc when the bike is just sat for months over winter ? What about any residue left on the tarmac. Is it slippery?

Whilst hold the trigger sweep motion and count in your head 1-2-3 then release . Get a more uniform coverage and then let it creep for 2hrs minimum. Polish with micro fibre cloth.

Watched this and have brought some ACF50. I also purchased a couple of small compressor spray guns to make it easier getting in and about the engine. Haven't tried them yet but the quality looks good. EBAY: HVLP Air Gravity Spray Paint Gun Set W/ 2 Sprayer Paint Nozzle 1.0 mm + 0.8 mm

So I tried the spray guns and their great. Easy to get in and about the engine and worked straight out the box.

Brilliant, gravity fed gun from Machine Mart for less than £15, mist gets everywhere, I didn't bother covering the wheels just took care and cleaned discs after with white spirit, I hate seeing rusty wheel bolts and wheel speed discs. 😁👍

It is high velocity low pressure! You should give painting a go now u have the gear! The knob u twizlled is the needle adjustment which allows the fluid out the cup the 2 little horns on the front have little air holes that hit the liquid as it comes out and creates your spray fan. You shoudl take it all apart and clean it properly so it doesnnt clog up

Great video and glad the new sprayer was a complete success. I think you need to leave the bikes in the garage until you have raked up the leaves on your garden LOL.
