Before: After: Before painting, I contacted several people on ebay with Polly pumps for sale. All of them were reluctant to share their color codes with me. I researched on here, but I didn't want that lime green color. I'll update next week what color green I used so if you like it you can use it as well. I got tired of waiting on painters, so I started painting my own gas pumps about 8 months ago.

LOL, what you really meant to say is that you dont like to spend money on paintwork because your wallet is superglued together! HA HA You never waited on me, must be your other guy!Im glad I finally got you convinced that with effort you can do it yourself, as anyone can! Now you know what it takes to get these jobs done! Plus you saved all that money!!!!!!!!

Plus you saved all that money!!!!!!!! I never complained about your work or the time it took, because the paint jobs that you did were amazing. I guess I need to let every one know that during this process, I had about 10 phone calls to help walk me through some of the processes of taping and striping with base/clear. Thanks for the help and painting tips Steve!

I was just messing with ya! Im just glad you started painting yourself, it makes the investment that much better in the finish!I figured you would enjoy the pumps so much more if you did them! I believed in the beginning that you could do your own paintwork, ya I know im not a good salesman, I just lost business!!!! See ya soon!
