Refinished fuel tank for my 86 VFR700F

300 pesos is still a hell of a good deal for paintwork of that quality. It also pays off to stick with who does good work like that, rather than some dudes who just need to have a "name" guy with a label attached or who jump around like they had their shorts full of cannibal crotch crickets.

My guess is that Solano has a mix station otherwise the paint alone would be in the area of 100 pesos. Included are prep labor, additives, basecoating, masking and what is probably the best spayrig on the market and a spraybooth that nobody is gonna give away and has to meet California regulations.

 

:dread: Oh if it was only 300 pesos :dread:, everyone would be shipping their bodywork to Noe.
300 MXN {Peso} = $22.65 USD

 

Ten more years and the whole State of California will be on the peso standard. Canada is next. (sort of)

 

I have 2 more gas tanks that GTL Advantage are going to epoxy line for me, one s from an 06 Trumpet Bonneville T100 and the other is from a 1983 VF750F that I just pulled the carbs out of.

 

I picked up the tank for the 83 VF750F from being epoxy lined today and was the guy to ride this 4000 mile bike for the 1st time since some time back in the 80s when it was parked with a full tank of fuel.

This was the first 1st gen 750 fuel tank they had ever done and had to do some serious surgery to get the rotten screen and lines out of the tank, it was really nasty in there.

 

If you use the Caswell product to seal a tank, it fills any pinholes easily

 

I used to use POR-15 and always with excellent results but, I got tired of doing that work myself and can get a lifetime guaranty from GTL, not Caswell, POR-15 or any other tank sealing kit is going to give that.
My CBX tank is next to be rust treated & epoxy lined, I am taking it there next week.
