Iam a beginer painter. I will be painting my Harley fenders and new tank. Original Paint on the fenders with minor body work needed. The tank is raw steel (new). Do I need to strip the fenders also to bare metal?

Hello Calxen,
You didn't say what year H-D you have, but if it's a newer Harley and the paint is original and in decent condition without any paint problems, you will be all right not to strip the fenders.

You should be fine just 'feathering' out all the bad areas, spot prime, resand, then paint.
