Not sure if this is the right place to post this.
I'm working on the blacked out MT and I tried dying the tank black. I've learned that the New Ritt Dye formula doesn't do the job. It came out dark brown. I tried spraying that black flex seal on it and it looked good. I was having a hard time getting the snappy grommet in so I tried lubing it with WD40 and the flex seal started dissolving. Glad it happened before I had her all back together. I'm sure the gas would of did the same.
My question is has anyone tried the Krylon Fusion spray paint made for plastic on a new tank? Seems like it would work. There is also a Rustoleum Paint for plastic. I had a Honda Element and I painted the plastic fenders with it and it held up very well. Also it didn't come off with gas spill. I'm gonna try it just wanted to see if anyone else has?
