Removing paint off a Yamaha XS250 Tank

So last night we stripped the paint off the tank using some 3M paint stripper. This was the hardest working stripper I've seen since my 21st birthday FAT A GRAM party.

So last night we stripped the paint off the tank using some 3M paint stripper. This was the hardest working stripper I've seen since my 21st birthdayFAT A GRAMparty.

It took off the black top coat and left the blue OEM paint underneath. There were quite a few nice dings from where it had been dropped. 1 nice one on the seam and one either side and another on the top near the fuel cap.

Base OEM BlueGood thing about this stripper is that it didn't give me an STD and it didn't pretend to be interested in what I had to say. See you again sometime.
