Crash one fast please
Cans are anodised in gold . You maybe can repaint it in gold but not sure about the result. Maybe only a light touch of clear yellow. And decaks are available in repro from mci

Tt01 02 are the common base for the touring bodies. I ran only one time a tt01 several years ago. Classic. And not exciting. To much plastic and plays . I still prefer the okd ta01 02.

Having a Technigold or Technipower where the anodization is dissapearing i would use it for runners.
Anodizing a can again can be very expensive and unless you have a few to do, the best and cheapest way is to get another one in good state.
