A client has several ultra rare Bultaco Metralla’s that he is restoring and we are doing the paint and bodywork for him. 2 of them are the fiberglass GTS models and 1 is the steel tank street version which we will do later. Very cool bikes. The fiberglass tanks were in pretty rough shape and one of them was leaking. The ethanol in pump gas is deadly to fiberglass and plastic tanks, so we coated the insides with the epoxy sealer from Caswell Plating. Next, we media blasted all the old paint off with plastic media and filled the million pinholes before priming with epoxy primer. Then we filled the pinholes we missed! Next up is the base color and decals!
