I didn't build it up thick at all, just enough to hide some of the welding.
Thank you. I am trying to keep my welds nice but 40+ year old steel with oily gunk hiding in the seams has thrown me a curve just when I think I am doing alright. I may just try following your path.

Everyone else's Ridetech cap looks more flush than mine did when I mocked it up last Christmas. It looks like it fills the factory recess nicely and ends up pretty flush. Perhaps I just need to bite the bullet, drill and cinch it down to get the full effect?

I put a torch on my seams after i blasted it to try and cook some of the 40 year old gunk that had accumulated. Know anyone with a powder coating oven? You could cook it several times.

I found that gas cap a pain to install because of the filler neck o-ring. Makes for a tight fit but as intended to do.

Thanks. Real easy to apply. Just mix the catalyst, set the pressure at 60psi and spray.
