Refurbing alloys

[admc6]

I will do that. I think more peopple would be willing to try if they knew what was involved

I think i will stick with the filler for now as these dont have any kerbing its just corrosion. I might change that with the ones i'm going to take off the car

[admc6]

Just thought on

Is there a specific silver spray you should use for your alloys?

and...

How would you get the shine back? Do you just put some polish on when its all done?

[Mikester]

One of two things.

Either spray them silver, metalic silver, good few layers and then laquer them and polish them like you would your body.

Or get them chromed, athough you cant do that yourself i dont think :/

Hope that helps.

Oh ok, the first sounds like the finish i want.

Dont think they would look good chromed.

thanks mike you have been a big help

Does anyone know what screw bit you need to split bbs rxII's?

[Guy]

nope - but i think you need a torque wrench to do them up too?! i could be wrong but I would doubel check if I were you?

[admc6]

i know that, but i dont have the bit i need, all but that one by the looks of it
