Re:
It's obviously not genuine zolatone , because i think it's nigh on impossible to get that stuff any more. Remember the older bikes had darker zolatone than the newer ones. My 90 bear valley is darker than a later pine mountain for example.
I remember reading about a chap on here who worked out that hammerite stonechip protect in grey , applied correctly is a pretty much exact copy of zolatone. And i can confirm that it is.
Tough and chip resistant too. Got to be the hammerite version though , as others can dry with a sheen / like rubber.
I'll try and get some photos with a proper camera rather than a phone to show you the texture. I'm at work at the mo , but here's a larger picture.
