So it turns out paint stripper does work.... you just have to leave it overnight then resaturate it with another coat ::)
Anyway time to do something about those bubble gum welds and weld spatter. These things really were thrown together ;D
Before
After..... ALOT of grinding
Almost ready for some wet or dry and a bit of polishing :daumenhoch:
oldschoolace:
Thought about reshaping the drops or drilling them but I don't want it to end up looking too fixie ish so the original drops are staying :)
oldschoolace:
Sorry i dont have any more pics. Sanding shitty old, low end, wanky welded drops is a complete arse >:(

Got bored grinding away with my dremel ;) on the drops so went back to the head tube today. Another lunch hour gone she is almost there and well pleased with the results given how badly flaired the fork end was :daumenhoch:
