Frank Z. Decals and a little spit and polish

[Guest]

Just wanted to post up a few pics from my build thread.

Decals from Frank Z with Duplicolor Bumper paint. Look like new. Oh, and a little finger nail polish on the run/stop switch. Perfect match.






The GS Syndrome kicked in. Polishing the float bowls as I restore and rebuild the carbs. Inspiration for the shot comes via Steve. The penny test.

Here's you go. Straight out of the "Parts and Services" area.

Great guy and a great product. I'm impressed.

OK, which one of the 97,000 shades of "red" did you use? That looks great.

Looks good to me.


We really need to do something about the hazardous conditions in our work shops.
We both seem to trip while carrying aluminum parts and catch ourselves on the buffing wheel.

You're telling me Steve.

I just hope OSHA doesn't show up. Ha!

I'll take a picture of the finger nail polish. Got it from Wally World.

Okay thanks!

I would show you a picture of my "Man Card" as well, but apparently I had to turn it in to buy this polish. I just saw that it's called "Heart to Heart." Hey, I love my bike.

This is the polish I used:





It just takes a really thin coat as not to clog the grooves and get all gunked up.

Thanks, will put that on the list, or at least will do that after seeing if Mrs. Steve has anything like that. She doesn't do a lot of fingernail coloring.

Those look great, I'll have to contact Frank Z soon and boy you and Steve know how to polish.

This is what he said was his inpiration:



Not that these have anything to do with it.

Only you, Steve.

Switches look great, Cory. Nice touch with the nail polish, too.

... and MAN, those shiny bits!

... and MAN, those shiny bits!

That's why we need your "shiny bits", too.

Thanks for making them available.

Get with him Tech. They are great for a restoration of the switches. I want to be just like Steve when I grow up.

Thanks Frank! I was really pleased at how forgiving the decals were. They stick really well but there's just enough give to position them before full contact. They also went on without any air bubbles. Thanks for providing the service and doing the R&D on them.

This is a little before and after with my work today. Still working on it, but they are going to look pretty good when I'm finished.

Looking good, Good Times. Is that body soda-blasted or some other finish?
