Im not really sure what Leager red your refering to, they use a candy red and also a solid red. (Maybe post a picture or link me to a picture or check out my colors thread to get a better idea of what red you have in mind)


Fire Red is a Dormant powder, and I prefer it over the candy reds simply because clear is the final coat and affords a touch more protection then having a color coat (Candy or transparent colors)

You can add a clear to candy colors but IMO its a waste of time and money seeing I can do a dormant and be done with it:p

In order for the resovoirs to be coated, they would need to be removed from the shock, sent here, then coated, then sent back, then reinstalled on teh shock and the shock reserviced. i can handle the coating, but i dont do shock service and most folks do not want to pay a shock builder to tear apart the shock and rebuild it when completed
