therock:
whats the best way to get chrome plating off . any one no of any were that does sand blasting in the wigan area that ll do it. :daumenhoch:

harris:
take it to a place that does chroming if you can ,they will reverse the chroming procedure.
and its cheap and quick.

Rombloke:
do not get the chrome blasted off, you will end up with a fu'cked frame, take it to the chromers, where they use a process which is the reverse of the plating process to get it off.....


again............DO NOT BLAST


it'll cost ya 15 quid or so to get it chemically stripped.

If it is stripped using the wrong media it can leave the frame pitted all over which makes it very hard to get a good finish.  It's always best to get it stripped at a chromers as they use a electro-chemical process which unless they fook it up completely (remember that National Pro?) leaves no damage on the metal  :daumenhoch:.
