I was bored this morning and suffering with a hangover from a night at The Halfway, so this morning I took a tip from Phil Coleggwent and pimped by Explorer.

When I bought it second hand the fool who owned it before me had coloured all the white bits black with a felt pen - it looked awful, but was cheap and works fine. Been meaning to do something with it for ages and so bought some camoflage adhesive tape fabric from fleabay.

I am pleased with the result. Anyone else made any modifications to their machines? Any tips? cheers Phil for the idea - should keep it cleaner.

Looks Great Neil ;0)

I used to use magnetic re-usable Camo tape on my Air rifles 
Im not sure if you can still get it but its ideal for a detector as most of them have steel shafts

Looks well cool Neil. I tried something similar but I used Detecting Wales Rally Stickers from the rallies I have attended. Tends to look a bit chav unlike your smart job. I like it.
