Re: The Painted Bezel Thread

Now I know why I loved my Tonka trucks so much. Looks good...

Re: The Painted Bezel Thread

Well, it has been about a year since I painted my bezel. It was sometime in November of '06. For those of you on the fence wondering if the paint holds up, here is a pic from a year ago and a pic from a couple of weeks ago. It holds up just fine.

November 06


November 07

Re: The Painted Bezel Thread

I like the new white bezel on the black cherry. I slid the Ebay light guards in while I was at it.

I agree. I love the way BC looks with the white bezel. As a note mine was done I guess about 10 months ago...still looks shiny. One thing I did notice if you wait too long before blasting bugs off they can stain, but a little rubbing compound gets it out to almost vanishing.
