Title: stem bolts.
Post by: magna13 on May 27, 2009, 12:10 PM

Right, me current race bike is looking the dogs! i love it but theres one thing that lets it down and thats the stem bolts!... they are bright orange!

After seeing Neil 'n2cus' 's resto on that HLT, the stem bolts were also bright orange! so how do i get them looking like i've just boughtb a new stem?

Thanks :daumenhoch:

For anything like that I use lemon juice. Common or garden pancake garnishing  :daumenhoch:
At the mo I'm using Jif natural strength. 
Leave them submerged in the stuff for 24hrs, then I use an old toothbrush to scrub them clean... Job's a good'un  >:D   G.
