Look in the tech and resto section fella be loads of stuff in there to help you out :daumenhoch:
-
needs shot blasting and powdering, pm superbike dan on here...
-
definately shot blast it , but you dont have to powder it, diy would be the cheapest option once blasted, chrome can be a right bastard to get off though even with a blaster ...
-
i would take it to a plater and get the chrome process reversed its much kinder on the frame :daumenhoch:
-
anyone know the cost of getting the chrome process reversed as i was thinking of just ruffing up the chrome and spraying it ;)
