How to tart up your sorry looking fuel cap!!
Plenty of elbow grease required
Before
Old fuel cap from scrapyard, screwed to a short plank.
Used a orbital sander with a fine sand sheet to take off the factory paint.
During
Used 150 to 1000 grade wet n dry to buff it up and get the scratches from the orbital sander
After
Used halfords rubbing compound to bring up to a nice polished finish
(well, the missus did
)
Just needs a coat of clear lacquer.
