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

Don't need the silver base coat if the chrome is staying do ya? I had blue straight over a chrome TS... Mind you you could peel it right off

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

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

and looked stunning

That is soooooooo nice mate and a great frame!!!!!

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
