Be cool, Be smart... Be your Yourself!

Regardless the bike model/brand. No matter how good/fast the bike is. Without skills the bike is nothing.

Money is'nt everything, but without money, you're just nothing!

thats the cheapest n oso the most common way to chrome the side of the wheel. if u wanna do the chrome process, its ex n time consuming n u would wanna chrome the whole wheel rather than just the side...

 

u can always ask bike shop for recommandation... or mayb the DIY king can recommand...

eh.. as a "guo lai ren", i suggest not to do so.. becuz everytime wash bike must polish, especially the rear wheel left side.. day 1 polish, day2 or 3 dirty liao..

 

but if you wanted to do so, i believe bike shop will do a better job as they might take out the tyre and do..

what you need for di.i.y ????

1 full day of nothing to do ...

better to have a main stand or a partner to help you rotate the wheels ...

brush ...

tape ...

paint remover ...

autosol/brasso ...

2 clothe ...

tiger balm koyok ...

 

how to do ???

go to bike ...

tape areas like your wheels cos pain remover will eat into them ...

cover areas you don't want to be affected by the paint remover ...

take brush brush the rims with the paint remover ...

once paint is remove ...

brasso or autosol till the shinyness you want with the first clothe ...

use the second clothe to wipe clean ....

the tiger balm koyok is your for back ...

you need it ...

 

why need partner ...

imagine you start off by the staircase ...

brushed the area with paint remover already ... you push the bike forward cos the rims that can't been seen are above so you only clean the area below ...

so you push your bike ...

when you complete one cycle of the rims ...

you found yourself no longer by the staircase ...

 

so you think you can just rotate the wheels by yourself ...

the rear wheel can jack ... leaning it on its side stand and rotate the wheel momentarily ...

then the front ????

so back to pushing of bike theory ...

 

other method from pushing ???

get a car jack and take out wheels by yourself and do finish ... fix back ...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

hope this help to clarify the give ans like no give ans ...

 

ya la mussolini ...

why give such answers ...

don't you know such things must come with instruction manual ???

 

 

 

cheers bros/sis/niggaz/daddy cool ...

sand paper is to sand away the remaining few patches of stubborn paint which is not totally removed by the paint remover...but please use the finest sandpaper u if not ur rims will be scarred beyond repair.... :(
