This was my rider from 2007 but has been neglected the last couple of years and looking pretty sad.
Here it was a few years back

last week it looked like this. Yuk.





Scraped the old stickers off and gave it a bath



Wiped it down with atowel and it came up pretty good



Ill show more tomorrow

As you can see I referred to a pic from BMXPlus to check the sticker positions.
Im within about 2mm, and only a couple of fingerprints. That can be my security system in leiu of microdotting it haha.



More to come.

This is how I placed the frame sticker. I lined up the middle with the top of the downtube and stuck the middle down first then slowly and carefully pushed the sides down starting from the middl top down and to the edges.
