P-Kay Posted 15January, 2023 Report Share Posted 15January, 2023 Hiya @MFX. Not sure whether it's an option for the tank lids in the bay - but can you paint the etched lettering say yellow for oil and blue for water? Obviously only an option if the etching is fairly grooved into the lid. Keep the great work mate! MFX 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
