    I’ve heard Nitromores is now watered down?

    Any good methods etc?

    media blasting.

    Costs a few quid but = no faff for you.

    I stripped mine of the bearings etc and sent it to fastline coatings in Preston. £20 for a full suss and it looks great.

    Hora. A place down the road from work will acid dip it and powder coat it for 50 notes. They’ve just done a belting job of mine. If you bring it round to ours, I can drop it in for you

    Just a little warning about ‘dipping’
    I had a frame acid dipped (a high end alu frame.) and it delaminated the aluminium.

    A friend said that sometimes the acid can get between any inconsistencies in the aluminium layering process (He is the type that knows that stuff but I have no idea if this is fact!)

    I wouldn’t use it again but the risks are quite low as far as I know.
