RE: [doc] NEC show...



Title: RE: [doc] NEC show...
Electro platers usually employ polishers, although there are "metal Polishers" only.
An Electro-Plater is liable to have chemical paint strippers on site as well.
 You should NOT have your wheels BLASTED if you intend to have them polished.
 
I can't recommend any one your area, ..yellow pages, ask if they can do the full job, i.e. chemically strip paint, polish rims to mirror finish, Price?
 
Don't forget only have em shot blasted if you intend painting them.
 
I could have stripped, polished em in the time its taken me to answer your emails!...well not quite.

Whats the difference between electro plating and polishing in appearance, and ease of care forthe wheels? What are the differences between a good electro-plater/polisher and a bad one? Do you know of one in the south-west that you would recommend?

Stephen,

If you can make the cheque out to me please. Send to my home address.

 

Regarding my wheels, I just used a chemical paint stripper ( tyres valves removed first of course) then "polished " them. It sounds simple, but its a horrid messy job, you use a 5 HP polishing spindle, lots of lifting and polishing soap.

 

Its the sort of thing that any "Electro-Plater" or metal polisher could do for you. cost about 50 GBP per wheel.

 

Mine have been done about 3 years now, you just have to remember to give them a quick polish with Solvo-Autosol or similar a couple of times a year,and don't leave for days wet and dirty or they will seriously mark. 

 

I understand that James Esprey was so impressed with them at Euro-fest that he now offers a version very similar, but clear lacquered on top for better durability. My only problem lacquers is that they can get chipped or rubbed on the edge and this can lead to the weather getting underneath and them looking grubby eventually.  You pays your money and makes your choice! 

 

Shiny wheels Parnham

No chance for PSO to appear then? Poor thing.Any way, Chris, what do I need to write on that £50 cheque for the springs(name or company?), and where should I send it to. Will do that this evening after work you see.

Kind regards

Stephen.

P.S. Where could I get my wheels done the same way as those very sharp, shinny wheels on one of your cars. I was told theywere diamond cut by one other member, what did they mean by that? I intendedto get mine sand blasted and repainted a brilliant shiny silver, but then I saw yours. How can I achieve that kind of shine and beauty? Please tell...
