I can be stupid

So, in my rush of excitement, i accidentally purchased black rustoleum. nowhere on the can did it say it was black- just "flat protective coat." of course, i overlooked the matte black cap on the can. Thats right, my bicycle was almost doomed to be a flat black bike (rust free of course). Luckily, i wiped it off the second i realized it wasn't clear. The bike isn't ruined, im just 7 bucks shorter.

Good news: i was able to get the seat post out: good ol' pliers and WD-40.

oh and some bad news, again: i somehow bent the seat when trying to put the pieces back together. woops. guess im just going to have to get a new sexy seat.

How could you possibly bend a seat? Like the whole things or just the rails?
