Tricks & Tools for Cleaning, Preparing and Painting.

Hi All,

We have seen a number of great restorations on the forum lately, some complete and some underway! There has also been some interesting information put up in the photo gallery, and elsewhere, about some of the tools, and methods our members have come up with to help with restorations.

After some recent interest in getting this information together, we have decided to start a thread to allow members to share there experiences, ideas and knowledge on painting and preparation.

Please feel free to add anything you have come up with, that would benefit a member who is trying to re-paint there machine. I know some common questions that come up are things such as the removal of old paint, cleaning bases and engines to look new, painting barrels, primers to use, and what tool can be purchased or made to help complete the task.

This will be a sticky topic, so it will always remain near the top of this forum area, so if we could try to keep this one on-topic, that would be great!

Cheers Guys, Looking forward to seeing some of the great ideas you have!


Cheers
Ty
