Love the work they've done.

I keep eyeing up the chrome pain solutions to properly chrome my mk2 grill. Still need to save the pennies at the moment though

Recently bought some door finishes (original type, not Crofts.)



As you can see, they are quite scratched.

Just emailed them for a quote for rechroming . . .

£40 each. That's £160 for all four They got to be kidding!

Ali.

Get a quote from Silvabronz. That's where I work. For 40.00 I would expect a complete strip then nickels and chrome plated😊
