Torro tank being weird

[MrChef]

I’d almost offer to repaint it just to know the awful silver was gone !!

OP would do well to take up that offer

No kiddin. I'd take that offer in a heartbeat.

Yeah here you can also see the bad "dirt" weathering on the side fenders with yet more silver liberally applied everywhere.



Initially I used 90% isopropyl alcohol and rubbed most of the bad "dirt" off but I knew I was going to repaint it.

The issue with weathering the silver paint is that it's a thick gloss and normal weathering products like pigments don't stick well to gloss.

If you can paint the silver off I would happily pay you XD, I dislike it as well don't worry.

I will get the kids on holiday for a few days & think about how best to maybe do it.
I still need to get that switch fixed.

Are you fussed on the paintwork/ no need to have it matched to the original ?

There wont be payment involved mate, if I do it, its for fun & free.

As long as it looks better than what it did with that annoying silver it's ok.

Thank you so much again if you ever want money for it just tell me.
