Don't forget to add things like filled water bottles etc in the gaps, so you don't need to put so much water in

& get yourself some Peek to polish it up afterwards - there's a great chrome polishing thread in the Tech/Resto section (you can skip some of the early section if you're using citric acid)

Just stay away from the tin foils and autosol
