removing flaky chrome

[earthman]

Anyone have any experience with sandblasting on chrome? Have a motorcycle wheel with bad chrome. Don't think anything but old fashion sand would come close to removing it. Rather have the flaky chrome removed from the rim to match the nicely rusted spokes than just go buy another used wheel

I had some chrome slots that were peeling and rusty so I sandblasted them. Worked great.
They went from this.

To this.

Finally to this.

That's how my grandmother looked after putting lipstick on................

Now that's funny. I still see some little old ladies at church that look like that also. I was ditching those tires so I didn't care about coloring outside the lines. HB

Very Funny

T2T that cracked me up. I have seen that on some older ladies in my area. It always make me smile.
