| Gday to all, thanks for taking the time to look at another post from myself, here is a few piccy's of a motorcycle tank I recently painted for my latest bike build, the bike itself is a 1980 Kawasaki KZ200 which I have restyled as an old school scrambler style build. Enjoy. Tank stripped and ready for filler and priming  | |

| next I hit it with a coat of silver and while still wet I covered it with cling film and moved it around with my hands to create a marbled effect and removed before dry, it is a process best done quite quickly with a very wet coat of paint, once removed I candied over the marbling with a candy red metallic and removed the taped areas to expose all that hard work.  | |

| once the texture has been wet rubbed out working my way from 800 grit all the way to 2000 grit I then give a rough cut and polish until ready to install on the bike where it will get it's final mirror finish polish. cheers to all for your attention and hope I did not bore too much with this process, lol
