Do you need to Costa ?


SBD will just silver powdercoat base straight on to the chrome ,, then use a translucent red powdercoat  over the top ,,I reckon  :)

Terry ,, you haven't seen the frame up close ,, I have  when it was J.T racings  ;)

it's not like one of your show stoppers  8)

The base powder will help hide the original finish imperfections and wear .

No worries about that  though as  Dan will do the magic on it and probably double the frames price/value

The de chroming process is easy ,,isn't it ?  ???

They just put it in the tank and do it ,,as easy as getting something dipped but with electric and acid involved  :)


It's not like it needs loads of careful prepping , as needed to do the re-chrome  :)

that's where the problems are and "getting the staff "  :-\

Had a JMC Shadow frame with a bad/peeling rechrome job on it, sent it off to SBD to be stripped and redone in candy red, top work  :daumenhoch: and looked stunning  :smitten:

The frame is 8/10 but the forks are dire. No idea how that came to pass but I guess they were chromed at different chromers.
Had it the other way round on another hutch.

Talk to SBD, he has a local guy that can strip it back and he's not expensive  :daumenhoch:
