Bossco Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 Mine are polished and there fine. A bit autosol avery now and then and they will stay perfect. It will take a lot to mark them if they are polished well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's in the Lenzie Mill Industrial Estate. May be worth a look, and I'd definitely be interested in hearing how you get on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

uk-rich Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 chrome is a far better finish, and is easier to keep, but i think its tricky chroming the cam covers, you have to remove the baffle. have a word with colsoop, i think he did some at one point Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
