got these 2 from the grave yard had them stripped of the chrome
they were pitted fairly bad there is one that has the very tip gone and the other with a pice out the side
the guys at the chroming place said they were to far gone to do anything 4 them?

any thoughts i was going to load them up with primer filler and just paint them flat silver could be used on a rat or somthing

Yeah- sell them to me, I have been looking for a rough one to see if I can use it as a template to make them out of stainless on a CNC mill....

weld up the rust with the oxy, grind the over fill.

Etch prime, undercoat then spray... should stick.

Hi there, In NEW ZEALAND here at a place called GISBORNE at the local electroplaters ,the owner has purchased a gizzmo that will put a coating on anything that looks exactly like chrome,ideal for parts that are beyond the standard for electroplating.However, the price is about the same as chroming. Could be worth a look ? Regards Daz.
