Sixteen thirty-two. What is that? A year?   No, it's your top score on Pole Position.

Its metal magic of Barnsley , they are located off J37 M1 . Top people and they love what they do ( also gave a great bulk discount on the 5 frame and forks i had blasted and powdered .)  :daumenhoch:

They are called  J Percival metal fabrication Mat.
Just past the college (going away from Manchester) turn left at the lights then left again and right onto a bendy lane. they are at the bottom. They only have a facebook page at the mo i think  :daumenhoch:

I took mine without even giving them a wipe over and they came up a treat. Better than bleaching, but not totaly as new if i was to be really picky. I imagine if you want them as new they would just blast them longer and charge more.

Nice one amigo, I'll have a pop down this week, I'll ask em if they'll do bulk discounts, but I don't suppose 15 squid a wheel is too bad to start with.

Take them along if you can, it makes it much easier for them to quote if they can see what needs doing. I imagine somethink like black brake rub on a white wheel would take a while.

The hubs will depend on there finish. Mine were polished so i had to cover them.
If unprotected the blasting will leave them with a very fine shotblasted look. Get some pics up if you get some coloured stuff done, i've got some yellow alloy hubbed skyways i want doing but they are a right state so it will be interesting to see the results of yours  :daumenhoch:
