Most of us on this forum use Peter Horton (Kent 400 is his Monica on here). I've lost count how many gauges Peter has restored for us and he's the best) . He's in Chatham in Kent.

Peter does a fine job. These are mine for the 550. The little white specs are spots of cotton, not damaged paintwork.

Peter's work is fantastic. He restored the clocks of the BiL's Kawasaki Z400J, they are like new. Highly recommended 👍
