Title: This won't be popular with some!!
Post by: Munnyella on February 11, 2014, 07:59 PM: Picked up this bendix 76 coaster and a mongoose motomag front hub, chrome is shot on both, front is proper bad, they don't justify the cost of a rechrome, and they are destined for a summer beach cruise bike i'm planning.

Anyhoo, was in poundland this morning, looking at the nail varnish, as you do when your wife runs a beauty salon, and saw this lovely glitter polish!!

Tin of their finest black spray too, and this is the result! Will give them a quick clear laquer before lacing onto some red anno rims I have in stock.

Post by: Munnyella on February 11, 2014, 08:41 PM: The rims are my old cinema 777's in deep red anno, I could glitter them, but might need another couple of bottles of nail varnish!!

Might do twisted spokes for added `benderness'!!
