COZZFATHER:
nice job :D
theres a big difference between chroming a new copy part and saving the original rare item,if the original has got to go again but in a bad way to start with thats a magnificent effort imo.
i have bought high end Bmx parts of JJ and he did the bizzo on them for me,he even amazed me when i bought some very sought after team aero pro bars offa him and he said would i like them chroming,i though nah just send me the chuffin bars but he said he would chuck the chroming in, i waited a couple of weeks and got my bars and they were mintos minty tripple mint.
rest assured on good condition old school pitted chrome bmx stuff the finish JJ acheives is top notch and i won't run with crap bmx's ever lol

No hard feelings mates, didn't intend nothing personal towards Jonathan and his work.
Accept my apologies if my post sounded that way..
I think that derailleur looks now like "overfinished", some old patina would have suit it better maybe.
I understand it was way beyond that patina before, so obviously I do not have better solution to propose :-[ than rechrome
MaD-RoK:
I'm not one to enjoy arguments, but I did read 'Lack of prep work' as 'Lack of effort' which is why I jumped to J's defence. His work is impeccable and the love he puts into said work is quite simply outstanding. His chroming is absolutely lickable and second to none. :smitten:
If I read your words out of context then I apologies. I don't even own a BMX. 8)
