I need to treat some large areas of flaking chrome on the chain stay on my new Concorde frame. Maybe two or three square inches.
I know I could just cover this with primer, but I'm wondering what is the best compromise if I don't get it professionally re-chromed.
The steel is Columbus Nivachrom. I don't know if it polishes up well yet.
I'm thinking my options are either to polish the bare steel and apply clear laquer, or try using silver paint.
Does anyone have any opinions?
Cheers,
Roddy
