north east painter

[deka]

Does anyone know of any good painter in the northeast, i have had a slight leak from the fuel cap which has lifter some of the paint around the filler on my recent paint job and the original painter is in derby which is a bit of a hike

Hi,
What colour is the tank and do you want the whole thing painted ?

Hi I ma\y have found someone in cramlington, its standard GPZ firecracker red. Its just around the filler cap where it has lifted

Hi, yes that happened to mine as well, in my case the dregs that were left in the nozzle from prev user ran over the tank as i lowered it into the filler, i immediately grabbed some paper towels and wiped away the fuel. Too late! By the time id paid at the kiosk and got back to the bike the blistering was already starting, came off in a large strip. Apparently the new E5 and E10 is very corrosive especially on new paint ( who knew?) Anyway im guessing you originally used same painter as me in Leicester area, i contacted him and he managed to blend the area back to as new condition, you now def cannot tell, yet didnt distirb any of the striping that was already on ( which is expensive to replace). Yes it is a fair trek but he did a fantastic job. Another option could be to courier it both ways save the drive.
Hopefully youll get it sorted and new painter will do a good job. There are local painters i could have used but didnt want to take the risk
