After the painter  boobed last year [ yellow]  i thought i"d  give it a go, ,, bought a 250 tank,  pulled out the big dent  with a valve glued to it ,  filled /primer/ base & decals.   

Looks good John, nicely done

Cheers paul,, a lot of flattening, and filling small dips,    still to be clearcoated .... B).  then wet sand [ 2000 grit],  and  pollish  with compound,,  

Will be popping by then mate, it looks good now! 

Need to have the tank on my DT done at some point

Maybe accessing the forum through the radio isn't so good after all

I put the tank in,  and said ,same as the last time. [ he did black 2 years ago].  the tank was a yellow one, i had rubbed down , and there was a trace of yellow underneath,  So by the time he got round to it,  he seen the yellow , and just presumed [ mother of all FKups],  he made a great job,,,

 I still got the yellow,  am gonna do it Orange,  like theDT250C,

I think the yellow is pretty good. Shame that decal doesn't have a speedblocks touch to it somehow.

I always put masking tape on and write whose it is and what colour. I even print pictures to give the painter idea.

can't expect busy eeps to remember what you said months ago.

Love how it floats in thin air. Nice job done to it.
