    Ummm UKRM quote please?

    Bandit 12 tank and seat surround (in 3 parts) so 4 parts in all.

    Plain old black. Satin or gloss, I don't care (1)
    No hurry for the turnaround.
    Tank has a pin dent that needs filling.

    Parts could be supplied clean to the base material for priming.

    (1) but something completely petrol resistent (2)

    (2) anyone tried expoy powder coating a petrol tank?

    You'll get mail.
    Gloss, always. Satin becomes glossy where it's rubbed anyway and then it
    looks like shite. You want the "Darth Vader" look.
    No worries.
    2pack acrylic does that sir.
    I'm sure it's been done, but powder is a bit restrictive. It can't be
    polished in the traditional manner, so any scratches are a fucker to remove,
    where they're pretty easy to shift if normal 2pack's been used. A blob of
    T-cut followed by a blob of wax and most minor scratches are history.
