OMO Plated plastic part repair
Thanks in advance for your help
[IMG][/IMG] [IMG][/IMG] Instrument casing from a Honda VF500 Magna. The Magna was not sold in the UK so I cannot just buy one on fleaBay or similar. I really want to know the best way to refurbish this. I have struggled in the past to airbrush "chromed" plastic without resorting to doing the whole bike and the "Liquid Chrome" is very expensive. Can I get small parts wrapped after I've prepped it, I see plenty of ads for big jobs but not little bits. Obviously it has to match its partner and other bits on the bike.

Re: OMO Plated plastic part repair
Many thanks for that. It's the tacho case I need not the speedo, I'll check out just how different they are tomorrow. I need some other bits that they do have in stock, so happy days.
