Yes mate,

Are you talking about an LP-440 ?

If so mine Came out fine,  little tip if you want to get the existing bare alloy bits really shiny. Stick them on a wheel with a little peek polish & they come up like glass.  :daumenhoch:

Keep checking it and don't forget about it.
I ruined a set of crank arms because I forgot about them, Ended up getting SBD to powder them.
Dan told me about using caustic soda.

Stick it in a plastic bag & use Oven Pride or Dr Magic Oven & Grill cleaner.. it's about £1 from cheap stores.. give it 5-10 mins & keep rubbing the bag to work off the anno. if you leave it a long time it'll turn black.. a Scotch brite pad or those harsh green scouting squares will take that off but try not ti let it go that far.

You'll be fine  :daumenhoch:

caustic soda is way better than oven pride, easier to see whats going on and control the results  :daumenhoch:
