ok peeps today's topic is restoring a chainring & disc, made of steel from what I've been told in here

will be on the way from thailand at some point soon - anyone have any tips on how I can get them back to somewhere near their original condition? (steel too tough for autosol?)

cheers

JOO:
Hi mate first off you need to know what metal it is,do you know how to tell the difference between the two ?

griff:
might have a better idea once it comes Joo - but from what i've been told I think it's steel (the pic i posted is the actual disc + ring)

will be a while before they arrive tho

griff:
tonight's topic - chain recommendations  :-\

toss-up between

Izumi nickel plated
KMC Z510HX
KMC s10 stainless

is the stainless one any good or more suitable for a show bike only? much difference in quality between KMC/Izumi?
I've no idea so any advice appreciated (also on yesterday's question  :daumenhoch:)

cheers

griff
