Put a dab of clear nail polish on it. And I may just bet that you have some.

Im such a Dumb ASS!!!!!!


I deserve this for Making such a retarded mistake. Here is some fodder for you guys to laugh about.
So im dabbing the two spots on my tank with the clear nail garbage. As I lean over to look at the surface i dabbed in the light, I forget to pay attention to the fact that the nail polish bottle in my left hand is still open ( the applicator in my right hand) Apparently i leaned my left hand over a little too far, forgetting that the bottle was open and Like a F@#$in stooge,dumped almost half the contents of this shit all over my Tank. I immediatley start spraying cleaner All over the area. and hitting it with maguires paint cleaner. the stuff splooged down the side of my tank, flowing on to my seat and inbetween the seat and tank..I got all of it cleaned off luckily in about an hour. Feel free to chime in any time gys.

I have decided that you are forbidden to come within 25 ft of my bike and maybe you should double that distance for your bike...lol

You should of at least thrown in that you had 3 or 4 martini's to possibly safe some dignity.
...as for that chipped area, the nail polish hopefully works.
