Im just about to put this Nag Master pui decor (and my pinarello concept) that ive bought of this forum, into a box to send to cc finishers in liverpool for a respray. But im having second thoughts about respraying the nag. It is badly scratched under the top tube, as though someone has taken a knife or something sharp and just slashed at it. There are other minor little cuts and scratches but nothing as serious as under the top tube.
Theres a sticker at bottom of seat tube that says "varnished by Dossena Carlo". First ive heard of him and there is very little on the net about him other than he paints or "varnishes" bike frames. It seems a shame to remove the paint.
I would dearly love to recreate the paint scheme but apart from the cost It wouldnt be truly "original". So my option is to keep it as it is or completely rapaint in single colour. If i repaint it in one colour it will still be a master pui but i WONT be able to call it a "Decor" anymore.
Please someone help me to make up my mind. If i decide to keep it as is, is there anything i can do to help repair the bad scratches under the TT. Possibly something to keep the rust away as well?
This will eventually get a mostly c-record kit but with deltas (2nd or 3rd gen) and shamals. So either mae it look like "new" or keep original paint and give it "lived in" proper bike look.
