My tiger tank needs a paintjob, lots of blisters. Is it possible to get a good paint job on that thing that won't bubble after while?
yes and no
it will last for awhile (few years)
but over time what happens is the gas fumes leach thru the plastic tank and get under the paint causing bubbles .
Mustang is correct, however if you try to always store the bike with a full tank of fuel then it reduces the problem.
mine is at the shop right now getting a new coat of paint. My tiger stripe decals had a lot of bubbles but not a single bubble anywhere else. The new paint job will hopefully eliminate this issues with airbrushed stripes.
Where is your tank bubbled?
My tank had no bubbles what so ever...
Seems like it is really hit or miss; the one I just ordered is AFU!
Hey TolleyMan, glad the bike found a good home and you are going to get her all purty again. In case you have figured it out yet you can take Mustangs advice as the gospel. He knows these Tigers as well if not better than most anyone out there.
BTW I am sending you a PM because your emails were getting kicked back to me today.
