    Yet another 250R tank resto...

    Here's a few pics of the tank off my '86R. Just finished it. I don't have any really good pics of it before I started, but it wasn't nearly as bad as some of the ones I've seen posted on here before. No scraping, just stepped grit wet sanding and a little polish at the end.

    Looks real good. Hope to get started on some of my projects soon. Think I"m going to try Billy's trick on my tank before I start sanding.

    Tank looks good. I have some oxidation on my tank that I will be cleaning up soon.
