PS: Got a SMS from BikeIndia saying brake fluid can remove the paint if it falls on the tank. Can it do the same for the levers?
u can use ur exp of lapping heatsinks [if u belong to that catagory then .. ] .. u can first use rough sand paper to scrap paint and then use finer one like 600 grit or smthin to smooth it out ..

i did same for the paint on rim , which i painted but need to scrap for sm reason but the rim got rusted ..then i painted it back with black !

btw if u happen to found any liquid for the same let me know
