[Closed] Who's Polished Five is this?

i think and i cant see the pic but its vaughns the painter at orange....

Why would the bloke that does the painting at orange have a bike that doesnt have any paint?

fed up with his job?

So you can polish a turd

Ha! That really says something about the quality of your own work if you refuse to have an example of it on your own bike. Brilliant.

Very Nice.

mikey-simmo...thats a bit harsh isnt it? it doesn't say anything about the quality of his work!!! Does it really?...if anything the quality of his work is outstanding... did it ever occur to you that he might just want to try something different? I know that if I had the tools to try my ideas out I would give it a go.

Im sure orange will start having new requests!! Looks ace!!!

very nice

Could me mirror/chrome paint?

He's got a 225 with the same treatment, bloody lovely!

Well the prep involved to get a polished finish would be way harder than a paint finish, so maybe he wanted to show off his attention to detail & dedication to the cause?

It's his bike I guess. But they don't offer it? perhaps they should. If it was anyone else's bike It would just be different. But a painter for the firm that makes it, Ironic?

Love it
Anyone know anywhere to get it done.

you have to use a special grease to get the frame like that........its called elbow grease.

special grease

I thought you were going to say 'man fat'

check out LONDON PLATING CO. they will chrome plate onto alloy. frames cranks etc. not cheap but check their process....even shinier than polishing..

Aren't Rowan Sorrell's Orange frames all a polished finish? Think Luffy has got one as well....

flamejob, that's the best looking 5 i've seen.

More like an alpine 160 !?

ah, that might explain it 😆

I'd like to know where Flamejob gets all his money from for all these exotic bikes and finishes. 😀

It's not mine baby.. honest!

That Alpine making my living room untidy is Mr Sorell's

…though I might polish Mrs Flamejob's Five. Mmmm shiny.
