Great work guys, so much work to do before the chroming can take place.
Super job
Thanks
Amazing
Thank you! Cheers!

There is definitely artistry involved in the demanding and extremely dangerous job that the boys at the mops do.
Those machines are widow makers and your polishers make it look easy.
Without the preparation work they do no chrome can look any good.
Another great video and fantastic content.

Many thanks. Our staff are very highly skilled ans passionate about what they do.
You are lucky to have found them and retain them.
Look after them.
Down here in Australia, artists like that are hard to find.
The ones we have are getting on and there are none coming up to replace them.
I see genuine enthusiasm in all levels of your output.
Kudos to you and your team Sir.

@@nkelly.9 We can't find them, we have to train them.
By the way, my dad worked in Melbourne polishing and plating in the 1960's. Worked at the Moonee Ponds Plating Company.
Solar Plating is around the corner from my workshop. Old John there has been in the game for years, I will ask him about Moonee Ponds Plating - he will be sure to know of them. He lets me use his 3 phase polisher/linisher and does lots of work for me. He has taught me a lot about the processes involved. I have been doing my small scale zinc and nickel plating for some years now and have developed an appreciation for the sciences involved, chemistry and physics, and have been striving to improve the results of my work.
I restore motor vehicles for a living so have been involved with plating for some time.
Doing an Aston Martin DB6 Volante at the moment - chrome, nickel, blue zinc chromate, yellow zinc chromate, black zinc chromate, aluminium anodizing, steam bending wood, you name it. i do the small stuff and John does the big stuff. I metal finish for show quality and John puts the chrome on. We get great results For harder cases I go to Master Plating , they can do acid copper which John does not do - he just does the cyanide copper. Combined we get the job done to show quality standards.
Thanks again for your terrific videos.@@ChromeandCarRestoration
Good
Thanks
TOP JOB. IS IT CROMED ONLY OUT NOT INSIDE?
Correct.
Considering the metal is already very thin and well corroded from rust. Could a light linish and bright copper be applied and buffed instead before nickel and chrome?
Or was there no danger of going through the metal?
On exhausts coppering introduces other problems due to the different expansion rates of steel/copper/nickel. Makes it liable to blister especially attached to a hot race engine.
Hi, how expensive is it to restore and re-Chrome some motorbike exhaust parts, or a pair of oldtimer car bumpers?! I would really like to know a ballpark figure or starting price please! 🙏 in euros or pounds. I would really appreciate it. Or maybe could you tell me how much it was to restore this motorcycle exhaust? So I have a feeling, because I am wanting to restore an old car with a friend of mine! 😉 cheers 👍
First time ive seen a how to video, where the first step is not shown
We all have our secrets
What bike and model is it for?
Sorry I can't remember.
Would be cheaper to buy a new one though..
Not in this case. Out of production. A pair of these is about £2k in comparable condition.
what a waste of time and money
Really
Interesting
