Well I had a bit of a disaster yesterday while giving my pride and joy a bath with the gurney (lesson #2435 - don't wash old chrome with gurney) Doh looks like by OA bath was a waste of time for now...

Chrome or Powder What do you all think?



Close up of the damage



All my frames stripped and ready for..........
From the Top New School 2009 Felt
Freestyle Boss D9212 (this bike is owned by my brother and going to the chromers tomorrow)
Team Boss D1874 with the damn peeling chrome
Team Boss Junior B0373
Unknown at the mo frame with an R on the gussett



To my surprise, both the Boss's had a "team model USA" sticker inside on the fork tube when removed, some joy!

ouch,     we live and learn.

go the chrome again I reckon.

[COASTY]

Yeah you gotta do it chrome. It will look amazing with a fresh coat of bling on it.
Man thats pretty sad how that happened.

What about clear over raw chromoly?
My brothers freestyle Boss and a set of Dyno pretzel bars is, wait, for, it, $504. Stripping my other 2 is only $110 2*F/F + 1 seat post + 1 set Boss Junior/Cruiser bars and CP guy (Bling) said if i powder it it is no dramas to restrip & chrome it later. So for now i will pick a colour unless i win the lotto.

So who bought me a ticket?

Anyone?
Anyone?
Bueller.....................

lol K8sy. Beuller, I hate that guy. Mate go white, Boss will look good white.

[COASTY]

Yeah I have to agree. If it's gotta be a color then it's got to be white.

[laingy]

hang the expense, I still say chrome. (as long as I'm not paying its easy to say)

But if we have to be realistic then white .......but white with some some pearl through it so it still as a bit of bling about it in the sun or under lights.
