KUWI Laser Bars resto
« on: July 07, 2011, 11:17 PM »
Got some bars that came with the DP GL plus - turned out to be KUWI Laser Bars

they have the usual marks and dull chrome with a bit of rust and pin hole rust spots - but have no dings or dents and no big scrape marks

so i have got to work on them with a oven cleaner - peek - and a polish off to make them shin as best they can  ;)

mix of before and after shots

as i got them - not easy to see as the flash bounce comes in


























cheers B  ;)

don't have a brand name - just some thing that is safe on chrome but breaks down the grease and muck that can form and make it look dull !

have a look in the two links below
