prepared top of the tank by thinning hammerite with wd40 and painting the top flange. very thin coat (will not seize bolts)using an M6 tap to clean the threads, then cutting the bolts to size (around 10mm long)you only get about 5 threads past the bottom flange without touching the tank topalso painted the tank protectoryellow is definitely the right colour, will stick on a rubber trim when I get the chance
