The frame was originally finished in brushed alloy with a clear lacquer. When I got it off fleabay it had been sandblasted, undercoated, then painted black.
The finish was pretty knacked- the ebay advert said that it "could do with a respray", I got bored one day and went to the local DIY shop for some nitromors...
Obviously my inspiration was the radiator- well spotted "me"!
The polishing was done once I had taken all the paint off, I used a little two man band called AC Metal FInishers down in South Bermondsey.
Total cost to have the frame polished and lacquered was £100.
