jono Posted November 19, 2017 Share Posted November 19, 2017 Do what I did, well not step by step or that will drive you nuts. I got the rubber seal out and hit the cap in two steps, inside then outside with dry time in between. Use primer to suit chosen paint. I used the brightest yellow oil based enamel spray paint can I could find Several primer coats then several top coats, days if hardening time then glued seal back in with more than original. Result is a bright and happy fill cap so easy to see. It also mimmicks modern idea of anything driver should check under bonnet us yellow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jono Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 Sexy enough? The new too on the seal added a better sealing also Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
