@@TNTMOTO spent most of the day wet sanding the tank, if I could send you a pic of what I started with you'd tell me to throw it away and get another, hahaha, but I just finished with the 2000 grit and I'm waiting on my drill polish kit and cut wax. My tank is white, I want to ask before the polish kit gets here, that is how it should look, is that right?
@@maw2044 after2k grit all your fine scratches should be gone. it will now just be hazy. The polisher will bring out the sheen and make it look new again. if it was badly stained you will never get the true white back. you can check out my finished yz490 vid and see the stained tank vs the new fenders and panels
There are a lot of protective layer kits made by different manufacturers. They all work great. Many of them have been around for quite some time . I think Plastic renew is probably one of the oldest. I like to use Maxima SC1 after a polish.
Have a 1989 cr125 frame that I'm trying to restore only problem is the engine I have is an 81 and cannot fit.The engine cog is on the opposite side of the rear wheel sprocket and engine boltup is off.Any suggestions.Willing to trade working engine for correct engine
Hey sir do u think u could give links to the dry brushes u use for your drill or where we might be able to get them thanks and god bless and could u do a tank restore on a white one and show me how to bring the white back to it's former glory
look this up on ebay. they have doubled in price now. i might have to try and find another supplier. this one is good because the foam under the pad is plush.CAR POLISHING BUFF BUFFING BUFFER POLISH WHEEL KIT FOR ELECTRIC DRILL 1/4" SHANK

Looks great polished
Sweet I will remember this trick for my project bikes. Nice job and keep up the good work.
Nice job as alway's, tank looks great. Be careful, some low life must be casing your place. Get a camera in there
Thank you so much for doing this video for me ❤️ TNT your the best
Looks great, like new again
After I used the meguiers I used soapy water and buffed it out with a wool pad gave me a great shine
Nice job on the tank and calipers, I'd put a camera or something back there because obviously someone has been eyeballing your things back there..
Plan to do the camera thing soon. Years ago i almost had my 86 CR250 stolen. They already had it ready to go and must have gotten scared off.
@@TNTMOTO man I'm telling you i can't stand a thief, anyways I'm gonna keep an eye on this bike I've been wanting one.
@@TNTMOTO I'd be more worried about all your tools they would be really expensive to replace .
@@follyfour506 I only keep large heavy tools in the back. all my other tools are locked up safe.
Use that “new wipe” on it. Looks Incredible

I"m guessing the Meguires looks so good because of the oil in the wax.......time will tell as it wears off...
I can make it look as good with just dry buff. But I think the meguires will actually keep the shine longer. nothing compares to new plastic.
I want the white blank side decal in white like that. Can you share the link to where you purchased?

Dish soap and water
If I send you my tank will you do it? This is not working out for me
I"d be leery of any power sander......
the people that do this for a living use power tools.
