ATF , any typ is the right stuff ! .

FWIW , Dupli Color Wheel Paint # WP101 , is close , silver and Urethane so if you dry it well it'll last long . the gain is kinda coarse but it's *very* good stuff .

I heat my parts after painting , in the oven @ 200° F for 20 minutes as Foo-Foo paint , by design , has no hardeners in it .

Any chance of some pix of your fresh forks ? .
