[QUOTE="SRAD97750, post: 127856, member: 425"] This stupid tank.... Whoever originally painted it should be plagued with the armpit lice of 1000 camels... I have put probably 4 hours of constant sanding with 60, then 120, then 220, and now with red scotchbrite. Still another 4 hours left before I'll be happy with it. I think it's going to go bright white. Here's how it looked when I bought it. The tank is the only plastic piece that is still with this bike. The rest were ruined and easily replaced. [ATTACH=full]13704[/ATTACH] Here is how it looked after 2.5 years of riding and pressure washing. [ATTACH=full]13705[/ATTACH] And some sanding dry. [ATTACH=full]13706[/ATTACH] Wet sanding starts to really clean it up. [ATTACH=full]13709[/ATTACH] Drop the grit! [ATTACH=full]13708[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]13707[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]13712[/ATTACH] I have to put in a few more hours or sanding and scotchbriteing. -BIG DAN:thumb: [/QUOTE]
