Got Kwak fever
Wasted a good days riding by getting the Autosol out.
Grubby old front wheel Bit of spit & polish Back wheel I've now got a problem. I was thinking of painting the inners black, but now I've polished them I dont know whether to leave them silver. What do people think?

Re: Got Kwak fever
Virtually. Started at about 10 this morning, finished at about half 8 tonight. The pics make them look better than they are. I have still got a lot of polishing to do to get rid of some water damage on the front wheel, but I do like em

I tried a bit of nitromors on my heel plates too, but the top coat doesnt want to move, so they can wait till I can sand & polish them. Going for a ride today after the Moto Gp, so it wont be this week

Re: Got Kwak fever
Autosol alone does the trick but it does take ages.

Re: Got Kwak fever
Right, here we go, this is the finished product. I decided on black in the end & am well chuffed with it. Still got a lot of polishing to do, but the idea is there.
