Well i've finally decided to do something with my other 93 Explosif after deciding to sell it then not then deciding to sell it then sticking it back in the cave, finally i decided to take it to the local powder coaters and give it a make over.
I've had a build idea for it for quite a while and a new colour was part of it and this is the colour i went for, black with a blue fleck.
It's back and i'm very happy with the outcome, sometimes it looks very blue, sometimes very black all light dependent. I decided to get the stem and bars all done the same colour aswell and for £138 for the lot it's a bargain really.
I did ask about if they could fill the little ring ding in the toptube but they said the filler tends to react badly with the powder coat and heat and can crack, so basically it would knack things up.
Here's a couple of quick pics under the light. More pics to follow in daylight.
Now what to do next
