What are your comments on the "EXTREME" BLACK CHASSIS GLOSS VS BLACK CHASSIS GLOSS?
I have read the extreme is some tough paint. I used it on my seat pan as a test. I thought it came out ok.
I have not, but plan to spray the frame next.

Good that you have tried the "Extreme" flavor- I have not
This is what Eastwood details with the Extreme-
"3 times more resins make it 3X more durable than our original Chassis Black coating. This maximum-durability, 85%-gloss auto chassis paint formula offers improved resistance to brake fluid, fuel, solvent, chips and scratches".
Sounds like it would be almost bullet proof and would be a good choice... I just know the regular Chassis Paint in Black that I used on mine provided Excellent results and the finish looks as good as one of Power Coated frame... so I am good with that.
Per Eastwood- Original Chassis Black Gloss is the perfect coating at the perfect price for any under car component.

- Resists corrosion, chips and scratches
- Resists brake fluid, fuel, solvents, UV
- Matches OEM finish
- Apply multiple coats without lifting
- 85% + Gloss Level
If it ain't smokin', it's broken!

Dang.... Your right!
I did not even realize I had bought / used the Extreme on the 71 DT1MX bike... was not even aware there were two different ones until you mentioned it as I was just focused on the "chassis Paint" detail.
SO.... The Extreme did work very well... I will use the regular Chassis paint on the Mini Enduro's to see how it works and if it comes out as good.
With this new discovery- I would go with the Extreme on any rider bike for sure... Thanks pabdt
