Well done, Tanner! I’m glad the vintage weights have lured you into restorations (insert evil laugh).

[@Massenomics]

Now I can’t wait for my Strength Co plates to get old in 50 years so I can restore them

[@tomahawkd33]

Latex, oil AND scrubbing??? I like what I’m seeing.

[@lancek782]

Massenomics has taught me everything I know to this day

[@Massenomics]

As it should be!

[@BasementBrandon]

Expanding the portfolio I see.

[@Massenomics]

We can’t really decide who to copy most, so just going for everyone

[@Splashdown99]

Great video and great product placement throughout. Those slides really make that motorcycle pop!

[@keithhoneycutt2324]

Great work buddy glad you didn’t ruin the look of them by repainting like so many guys do.

[@Massenomics]

Yeah I won’t be painting any, this is the preferred look for me!

[@cornfedhighlander2789]

Those look great. Cool process. Reaction to the sweet vintage collection Brian Shaw just posted about?

[@Massenomics]

No wonder I haven’t been able to fill my collection… he’s been snatching them all up! Haha. We talk about it quite a bit in the episode that comes out Monday!

[@cjmorgani3642]

Can we get a little video about that fine scooter behind you?

[@prospect_joe9813]

Looks like you got to take a trip to menards for this project.

That absolutely happened. Save big money!
