    Painting Polyethylene Tanks on 690, Spraypainter Needed

    Morning gents. I'm not too clued up with this, mainly because I've been avoiding all such work,  for the same reason. My understanding is that there's two types of these tanks. (generally speaking) . Nylon and plastic. One paintable and the other not.  We have the same issue with the airhead...

    Hey titanic. You've got the right goods. Here's the deal. Remove all the old paint from the plastics. Down to the bone. You can use paint stripper,  (but very careful,  left unattended for too long,  say hour,  it will eat your plastics.) . Once the panels are clean,  rougher the plastics...

    Hi mj,  First of all.. Your equipment is definitely sufficient. No worries there. RE the questions.. No. Never ever bring Polish close to an item if any further paint is  required. If you use 2k, you can stop right there,  flat with 2000 grit and Polish. You don't need clearcoat over 2k...

    Where to fix plastic fuel tank in CPT (urgent)

    I fixed someone's fairing on a fallen superbike a while ago. There was literally a piece missing the size of a cigarette box. It was the arm of the fairing holding the mirror,  so took a lot of strain. (constantly at 200kph+ wind force exposure) I wouldn't guarantee it,  due to the severity of...

    Where to fix plastic fuel tank in CPT (urgent)

    Max,  you're in luck. About ten years ago,  we built a kit plane (actual aeroplane)  and had to join the wooden wing Ribs to aluminium wing spar. Also had to bond the two halves of the wing tanks together. We used a epoxy and it's still going strong. Go to brights/builders (some have)  /...

    1976 BMW R100s

    Mark,  the fact that that it's in pieces,  really affects the price for sure. If it was as described,  but together and riding,  R35 to 40 easy. But in bits..  High 20k to 30k. The fact that he wants to part with it in this state,  is his problem. Secondly,  I honestly think the 100s is the...
