Thought I would share this, This is something I did several years ago, Just old an old car guy who loved the look of polished up alumimun and I got a wild hair one day and thought, hey, lets polish this fuel tank up and pant the trucks silver chrome :-) It looks pretty sweety I think.

I'd like to see a closer view of the fuel tank if you don't mind, It does look neat with silver trucks.

I can do that, as soon as I find that locomotive box it's in.
I forget exactly the steps i did it, but I know it was the dremal and sanding discs, I don't recall using any wire wheels on it, I think it was just sanding disc and then polished up with Mothers Mag...

I forgot to mention, I was going to do the handrails in Silver with the white, Not sure why I desided not to, and I was going to decal it up as a special BN unit as well. Think I might have some thoughts about this again now that I'll be digging it up.
