I've been working on test pieces for weeks now to re create the dimpled finish you get on some parts of the engine cases.. Took ages to find a way to get it looking as I really wanted.. Sand blasted first and soda blasted parts that are not to be polished and dimpled.. Then applied the dimple formula tried and tested over a three week period.. Very difficult to get the effect on I phone camera but it looks stunning.. Now got to work out a method to protect the finish...
It's only done around the sump area to be fair.. I don't want too much bling.. The rebuild is a year in now and every detail is planned well ahead.. ( or call it OCD ) it's my show bike, or will be.. I've got my run around too.. Being an artist doesn't help.. Always looking to achieve more.. As I say the pics don't do it justice really.. A couple of pics of other completed parts if you have not already seen before included in this post..
