Will that lot not just polish out Olly? Or has the keying knackered the chrome totally?

Have a go on the middle of one of the tubes polishing out the scuffs Olly to see if it works - be a bit of elbow work, but save you money and chrome looks proper bab nowadays since they made em take the nasties out of the chroming process - it's looks a bit more 'blue' if you see what I mean  :daumenhoch:

Oh and the og owner has engraved his name in 3 places and there's a id number aswell, cool bit of history but it effects the finish

what hes saying is that he wants it mint so its worth more when hes over '1995' in a few weeks and has moved onto 'vintage' having sold his soul to every other era ... then trashed them when hes bored.

...or something like that  :)

DannyRobo knows a good chromers in Grimsby ... they did my WAL forks.

just leave them FGS ... at least they have some personality and are original rather then being re-chromed.

If you are gonna re chrome AFC Howell really is the place, they did all of the chrome in my Rickman restoration & I couldn't speak highly enough about the service the work or the attention to detail.

When i went to collect I had 4 separate blokes there ask me if i was happy with the result (all of whom had worked on the bike) doing the prep & chrome. Real craftsmen who take pride in what they do.
