ArtS Posted August 26, 2008 Report Posted August 26, 2008 I'm making a tank bib for my brother in law's Harley. What is the best thing to coat it with and how do they hold up if gas is dripped on it? Thanks, ArtS Quote Art Schwab "You cannot teach a man anything. You can only help him discover it within himself." – Galileo Galilei

Bree Posted August 28, 2008 Report Posted August 28, 2008 Gas has never phased my tank bib. It evaporates so fast that it never really sets in there for long. I have a big sheepskin on my seats and often get fuel on the leather. That leather has no treatment other than its tannage. The fuel doesn't seem to bother it. So I wouldn't worry about it. Just finish in your normal way. The worst than can happen is that you have to make him another one! Quote Ride Safe!
