Sweet yeah use duplicolor to paint it IMHO. I never painted mine before but I love the trial and error part.

I'm a novice but how about putting a clearcoat over the fresh paint? That might keep it from fading.

( I TALK LIKE A IDIOT) This is my 2007 Roketa 250cc chinese scooter. I just caliper painted the variator fan and clutch assembly red. I put 15 gram Dr Pully sliders in and pulled out the old rollers it makes a big difference SMOOTH. I put on a pit bike clear stator cover and moded it for the variator fan. I left the bolts space so I can go in there to tighten up the variator fan bolt when I need to (looks good too). I have the FMF exhaust on it and and the uni air filter on the stock intake. I put Michelin 13inch tires and Xenon light bulbs in it no kit.
Blast to ride!
