Thumbs up for recording and uploading custom work. I am one of those who just does it and takes no pics or vids so I deserve the abuse I get when I have nothing to show but the finished product and the trolls are like "sure you did that yourself.... you bought it lol".. As they say " pics it didn't happen".

This should be helpful for me. My friend and I are both building hardtail choppers out of VLX 600's. His tank has a dent and decals. Mine is perfect, stripped and primed for paint. However, I am using an aftermarket skinny tank and he wants the stock tank. So I am going to trade mine for his and since his is already dented I am going to dish it out. Then decide either to sell it or keep it as a spare. I always loved that look.

Me too. I’ve been staring at pics online and finally just gave it a shot. My strong advice though is to have the tank professionally cleaned if it’s needs it. Mine needed it bad after I did this and I tried to clean and seal it myself. That was an expensive mistake…. Good luck!

Great job. Probably worth trying taking the ball end of the small hammer and grinding it and polishing it to a less pointy ball. I’m going to try this to give clearance channels on the tank for my forks to increase my turn

Mark, have you done a video of when you did the prep and paint? I plan to do the same but I’m worry about the visible small dents when paint
@markferioli208
Жыл бұрын
I didn’t. I should have. I used bondo to smooth out all my dents. I sanded it down then used a high build primer from a spray can and sanded that. I painted it with krylon spray paint. I then used a 2k clear coat and followed the directions on the can for that. I got that on Amazon. The 2k clear coats protects the paint if any gas spills on it. I can tell you it works really well since my original gas cap leaked all over it!!
