Repainting a stihl?

[Mozza]

FAAAAAR too many tarts in tree work these days!! Email Armani too see if they'll knock up some pants, them ones that only come up your arse half way, suit a painted saw nicely!!

Lol I was actually talking about the crankcases not the plastics.

Certainly not a job for today as need to get paint etc ordered or whatever if anyone had any good result. Just didn't know if anyone had tried one of these diy powder coating kits or anything.

[Mike Hill]

Anyone ever tried and had good results? ie no issues with spilt fuel taking paint off etc

 

Debating giving it a go on the 044 as starting to look rather well used now.

Wasn't sure what paint to use for the best results.

 

I sense a business opportunity for someone here.Imagine if you could send your saw off and have it come back with Company Colours or perhaps bedecked in the livery of your favourite Football team.

 

You could even have them wrapped I suppose,like Vehicle advertising.I would like mine wrapped with the Picture of Cliff Richard from the month of December,1978 Calender.

Giving it a refresh is one thing, metallic blue is another, pointless waste of time and money just because "it looks cool", too many newbies are too focused on flash gear.
