Peregrine semi pro resto

[Mdbh]

Started to do a resto on my semi pros they started like this,


Rims worn and spokes rusty but just picked the rims up from the anodisers and the rims look like this,

They look a lot brighter in the picture but there defo a satin finish now I need to clean the hubs up and order sum spokes!

Gave the hubs a once over with some autosol and there not too bad ithink the decals will be saved but will give them another go on my mates polishing wheel, what's the best stuff to use?


And thanks ed not bad for £30 which was strip/mirror polish and re anno! If you do the prep your self they will only charge £10 for both!

you need polishing soap!there are different compounds for different applications!for anything ally start with black soap on a coarse mop,and finish with light green on a cotton mop
