Restoration of the smoke chrome finish on your Pro-Class frame

[Spen69]

Ok then, it's a well kept secret, but Mark at Impreziv finishes of Darlington (who trades as FHMreader on here) can re-do your smoked chrome finish Pro-Class frames. Here's a teaser of mine after I got it home from being re-coated today



Don't bother with your show & shine entries, I have the prize all sewn up. Mark has done an amazing job - I will post more pics when it's finished this weekend

WOOP WOOP Spen the finish is perfect, cant wait to see this bad boy built up. Mark is a proper underground genius, under rated on this site. Bring mine on 

Nice one Spen

Spen,

Come on where's the other pics. Is the finish a smoke or black chrome - so far it does look smokey

[Spen69]

Frosty

It depends on the light. It is definitely black, but in direct sunlight it looks smokey 

Make up your own mind from these shots - I threw it together this morning and need to get some of the bits cleaned yup and polished, but it looks just astonishing









What do you think?

[DIRTBIKER250F]

Perfect colour match Spen, gotta love a pro class 

[Frosty]

wow that does look good. Was yours chromed when you sent it off only mine is like this at the mo

Looks fooking lovely, but FFS tap up JT71 for some old school chain tugs 

[DIRTBIKER250F]

I should have added it does need to be chrome in the first place, it is pretty irrelevant how bad the chrome is in my experience. But it would be Mark who would know

Mark is great, use him all the time on burnerworld to get the superchrome finish on the super tuff, night burner etc and does an amazing job, it's great for me as he lives about 10 mins away.

That Pro Class looks great, was thinking of doing it myself but i think the chrome on mine is a little too bad for it to get the full benefit.

Absolutely Stunning

It dont matter Paul, Mark strips them to that anyway mate. 

Doesn't the chrome have to be in good condition for the superchrome to work, it's only stripped/blasted for powdercoating?

[burner gx]

na doesent do for me, thats no good, if ya want  i'll take of ya hands ....





















 
wow you've done it again, first class absolutly beutifull
more inpiration for mine
well done mate!!

[DIRTBIKER250F]

Not at all, look at this





The chrome on that was shot to pieces, Mark done a fantastic job on it, ask Torkertony 

And he has my Proclass now and the chrome is almost shot on that.

Sorry for the thread jack Spen 

[Daletsunami]

Might have to take mine to see him then, almost bought a complete Pro Class off the bay a while back but missed out and now have a frame and forks which i will be sending round if he thinks the crome is good enough

Can't get over how great it looks

[Spen69]

Wow, I'm gone for 5mins and you're all over my thread! 

Just for the record, the bike already had it's chrome on it, and it stayed on. It wasn't in a great state and was a lot worse than my Supergoose. Mark only sprays over the chrome with the black finish, so it only covers the chrome. If you want it mint, you need the bike re-chroming first, then Mark will put the smoke finish on and hey-presto, it's like brand new. If you have a look at the close-up, you can see a few scabs underneath the finish, but it really takes your eye away from them and you have to look hard



As for the chain-tugs, sorry dudes, I like them and they protect the frame

Nice job done  .

Paul , is your CW done black chrome & Spen's Pro Class smoke chrome ? . It's very difficult in pics to see the finish real good on the CW , in the flesh is it quite different to black paint ? .

[DIRTBIKER250F]

Massively different Matt, the chrome on the phaze one is pure black but shines like chrome. In the flesh it doesnt look like paint at all.

The smoke finish on Spens is almost like a grey chrome in the light Matt.

Yeah , that's what I meant  .

I need to find a black chrome that is proper dark black to re-do my Vector blk chrome Ltd Ed so I think FHMreader is da man  .

[DIRTBIKER250F]

The Faze 1 black chrome would be perfect for the Vector Matt, it would have to be chrome first though, Pm Mark i know he is skulking about on here somewhere 

[fhmreader]

Skulking.....

[DIRTBIKER250F]

shiit build but a fooking awesome paint job

[DIRTBIKER250F]

If it has any original smoke chrome left on the frame, my bet is Mark can match it
