Ok for my next build I need some high polished parts !

I have a few bits already but struggling for a brake, I do have a NOS Dia Compe MX1000 in silver, will it polish up !

I do have a NOS 901 in chrome but it doesn't look right  :-\

Did the MX 1000 come in chrome or just silver - what is best polish it or get it chromed  ???

As above - little bit of elbow grease and they will sparkle - get the autosol out mate :daumenhoch:

Cheers Phil !

I have polished up a GT stem today using autosol but it leaves a few tiny scratches !

I think I will send them up mate - I will also post a pick of the little dent in my frame for you to have a look this week !

PM your addy fella  :daumenhoch:

it wont be the polishing thats leaving the scratch's - you need to sand the scratch's out 1st - i use 1000 - 1500 - 2000 grit wet n dry then polish and buff - jobs a good en. :daumenhoch:
