Chrome plating

<< < (5/5)

Marks reason "the rim is a problem as we had problems trying to seal the metal and looks like it has spotted out"

They still sent it back to me and i had to return it back to them.

Wouldn't it have been more logical just to fix it first????

RCJ Chromers, Rear mudguard.

The only decent chrome i had done were handlebars, that to be honest, where in reasonable condition to begin with, from Nottingham platers.But they did destroy my set of indicator bases after >:( >:(

I never argued the price with any of the platers, even offering a little extra on a couple of items, so i wasn't trying to be cheap.

Only a couple of parts left to do, so may be lucky.

Thanks for posting the images, I would have reacted in the same way. But the work he did for me was spot-on

Had quite a bit of stuff done by Classics & Chrome in Hinkley, can be bit grumpy sometimes  but generally pleased with his service. Last thing I had plated was a  front wheel rim  for my 750K0 and I gave that to Aaron Walkinshaw in Coventry (dropped off at Stafford as he always has a stand in the main hall not far from DS's stand).. Quality looks OK  (£100) and he left the DID diamond logo intact and in full relief.I will probably use both of them again. Both were about 4-> 6 weeks turnaround with no chasing involved from me. Both will do exhausts and Walkinshaw's have their own tinsmiths and evidently they do repairs too.
