Thanks dubsport. A few high spec mk2's are popping up but you know where you saw it first. ;)

Sean it was a home made kit but needs to be under strict control (safety and mixture) or it wont plate. Id just hand them to a plater next time. Save the headache  :smiley:

If you do want to diy you need a voltage regulator, zinc chloride and ammonia chloride but the mixture has to be perfect. Ball ache

It's things like this that make me want to buy a Mk2! This one of, if not the nicest Mk2 you will find!

The awards prove it! :cool:

Thanks Wherry.

Slow progress but this is a time consuming task based around a busy life.


More plating. Getting the hang of this





Managed to plate the tentioner spring. Chore!



Big valve head to fit. Might as well do it properly while its out :)
