Default Stock Gas Tank Custom Paint

I wanted to share what I think is a nice touch to the stock gas tank that is supplied with our kits. The stock black tank just looks like sh--

This tank was airbrushed in 15 min. then left overnight to dry, the next day clear coated with 2 part automotive clear.

The outcome is very nice.

I am willing to pass a couple of these along to our members...all I ask is a tank in return...

I'm going to go a new and some what expensive route will let every one how well it works for me.It is made by Clarke mfg it's made of plastic and holds 1.2 gallon.I ordered it in black but they make it in about eight colors.I have been running a one gallon tank for about a year but a full tank causes some serious vibrations and a cracked tank at a stud sealed it's fate.
