ToolboxToolbox looked OK at first sight, still had the original dealers brass plate on it | Inside there was still some of the original Polychromatic blue paint | Not so good once the layers of paint were removed |
---|---|---|
Decided to leave some of the original paint inside | Once fully de-rusted onward and upward with the filler | |
After many hours of sanding and re-applying thin coats of filler | Smooth as a baby's bottom and in primer | First colour coats go on |
And finally three coats of clear | That's not dust in the paint it is the metallic particles which make it 'Polychromatic' | New brackets from Ace Classics...easier than bending them myself |
All done | Dealers badge restored | Oil tankNo problems here, bit dirty inside and a couple of small dents. Here it is in primer |
All finished with transfers applied. New filler cap and filter unit. |
