i just want to do all the jubilee clip heads,most of the orig stuff has worn off since i cleaned them up and i didnt want to split them to get them plated separately

lol, I bet Nick can't sleep at night Trev knowing his clips are slightly worn, the shame of it all

might be quicker and cheaper just to replace the clips themselves.

Nick, Frost do a three stage paint set up for zinc replication mate? Might be worth a go?

ive seen the cadmium one paul,but nothing similar to the zinc apart from the silver zinc? but its quite pricey as id only need a thimble full

[Simon T]

ahh I hadn't realised that the Ford ones were no longer available

[Mike Rainbird]

That is all I have to say on the subject !
