Do you want it looking original, as in bare? I forget which one I did it to but I clear coated one so it looks very original but should stay nice looking a long time.

Yes, I did a rattle can, I think it's Plastikote paint I used. It seems to me I gave the tank a good wipe down first with an alcohol cleaner, likely Brakeclean (love that stuff) and then painted it.
