Anyone know of a good place to send old chromed stuff to be stripped / polished?

I use Leigh Metal Polishers to get stuff stripped... never had anything polished by em though. Maybe worth giving em a tinkle Ed.  :daumenhoch:

They are spot on. Used them for 4 years now. I've had stuff stripped, polished & re-chromed (my old Hutch Pro Racer and bars for example), stuff stripped only (VDC Changa), and other parts polished.  John's a diamond geezer  :4_17_5:

All serial numbers/stamps are preserved too. They know the score. Hardcore.

Takes me back to the Dog & Duck at MK last year. Nothing better than hearing the likes of Papua New Guinea in the wee small hours  :)
