Ok, been & bought some Citric Acid earlier
Will give it a go but as I've said, think it may be too far gone
& will probably end up getting powdered

Anyway here are some Before shots
Will post up Pics of the results if anything happens

I used 25g Citric to 1lt Water
See how that goes









Fingers Crossed  :LolLolLolLol:

I have a TA and the forks look just like yours.  I was thinking of selling it on but I would be interested to see how your comes out.  I am looking forward to see how this works

tobytyke:
Just had a check on the F & F, looks as if it's shifted abit
Maybe need more Citric, not sure  :-\
Oxalic may be better but again unsure
Think it's all far too gone TBH

Lee  :(

donkeybambam:
ox acid will shift that but in my opinion them forks look like it has eaten through the chrome underneath and just got grown and grown.

tobytyke:
Yeah think your right
Wanted to give it a try as I would have liked to keep it as it is
But give it go & see what happens
The chrome has gone in afew places on the frame aswell

Eh ho, that's what you get with 30yr old kids bikes I suppose  :LolLolLolLol:

Lee  :D
