liquid glass, could it preserve my chrome ?

[stuntman mike]

     Hi,

     my question is in the title. I have used liquid glass on my phone/tablet with good results, I've herd of people covering there motor bikes in the stuff.

     Has anybody used it on chrome ? What was the results ?

      Cheers

Your chrome what ?

[stuntman mike]

    Sorry  I'm building a aero pro rider for my sons birthday in the summer the chrome is nice and I'm looking at ways preserving it. I've used this stuff ( liquid glass ) and just wondered if anybody as tried it.

   I've tried lacquer in the past on parts never on a frame and wasn't happy with the result

[CustardLips]

No nothing about the stuff tbh mate... got any pics of the aero pro.

It's lasted 30 years already

[stuntman mike]

Fair point, mine has lasted but many have not. Once my son has got his hands on it it's just gonna be a bike, he's not gonna care if it's 30 years old. I would like it to last another 30. It's just going around BY area and don't want it to get any worse

[Devilock]

Just take care of it like any other bike with regular cleaning & don't store it in damp conditions.

think it could make the chrome water proof ,    but it wont stop you scratching it...

it would probably be work better on polished alloy...

Why not get your son some cheapish new school bike, let him ride it to a rust bucket if he wants and keep the areo pro for yourself to ride with your son

What Neil said...

If he's not going to look after it, give him something expendable, not a 30 year old classic!

[stuntman mike]

   I'm not saying he's not going to look after it I'm saying its going to be his bike. How many people have the self same BMX they loved BITD.

 As regards a new school he's got 1 now with a seat that wont go flat, but before he had a mini team aero pro so is fully aware that there's no school like the old school, which we rode together with me on my Redline 600a, both bikes built by myself ( ill get some pictures up, gonna get involved )

   Back to the liquid glass, hopefully in time when we're splashing it all over like BRUT 33 we'll all remember the tool stuntman mike  who brought it to our attention.

it is used for laptop screens . dos nt sound correct for metals. try it and see is the best way.

[stuntman mike]

    Suzuki will cover your new motorcycle in the stuff for a additional fee, they advise it if your going to use the bike in the winter months. They say it will seal and aid when cleaning.

    Ill try it on some bars and report back     

[bobbbbsy]

certainly good to learn of different ideas.

It's not cheap though 

[snoopy72]

Ok for hard surfaces but if you get it near plastic or rubber it may perish it.

I spray waxoil inside the tubes on all my frames and give them a regular spruce up with chrome cleaner to keep them shiney & protected.
If you are wanting something more than this why not have a word with superbikedan. You can get clear powder now (more hardy than laquer) so if you get the ff powdered and waxoil inside the tubes then that would probably be the most protection you could hope for.
