Sweaty palms - tanks transfers......

<< < (2/3) > >>

Sprunghub:
Brilliant.....exactly what I needed ........thanks for that.

All I need now is a pair of steady hands !

Sprunghub:
Hmm.....done it.....marked it up with 'low tack' fine masking as recommended, to Den's dimension.

Modern vinyls are VERY different in dimensions to those originals.

Have them on......bl**dy awful experience.  Don't think I'll need to wopry about what the wife thinks for a few day as I doubt she'll be speaking to me !  Probably should'nt have asked her to help :-[

Daren't look to see how they balance up.....I think I know !  Good job you can only see one side at a time.

Going to have a lie down....... ::)

Spitfire:
Great to hear that you have done it, the important thing is that the finished article pleases you.

Cheers

Den

Sprunghub:
Well, it's finished......had some difficult moments with the transfers & the lacquer, but, all in all, now it's done, I'm pleased enough.

It sounds 'naff' but having had some bikes I spent so much time & money on I never wanted to risk taking them out, I'm glad it's "good" & not superb, otherwise I could see it sitting in the garage ::) 

Respect to those firms who do 'Show' quality work..........
 



Just need to sort a 'tail' & some side panels now.....

Spitfire:
That's looking good, if I remember correctly there is a Halfords Ford colour that is a great match for the original side cover colour, used it on mine.
Just had a look and it is Ford Graphite Grey.

Cheers

Den
