Restoring my 1985 Green master part 2. The alloy hubbed tuffs.

(1/5) > >>

Discostu:
The tuffs on this bike where in a right state. Anyway these had a good old rub down with some Cif. And then a session with the bleach. Here are a couple of pics with one before and one after.  :daumenhoch:




They turned out reasonably well but after reading a thread on here about aqua blasting I decided to have mine done.
I must say the results were amazing.



They have since been built up with the original axles and hardwear with lots of new grease. They run super smooth.  :)

nos:
Love them!!!

Can i ask where you got them aqua blasted and how much?

Thanks.

Retrodan72:
They look amazing Stu, well done mate. :daumenhoch:

Kaner:
Wow they have come up great, well saved.

BENDYCAT ELEVENTEEN:
I know we talked about the auqa blasting and it's merits over sand/hand finish - they look super sweet and far better than i could do by hand

did they go over the alloy hub or was it rubbed up clean by hand ?
