Cheers guys. Thanks for the heads up. I think for my own piece of mind I'll carry on doing it. I don't really like chrome ( I know I'm in the minority here ! ) but I figured it would do that. When I used to prep a normal crash helmet I'd use 800 wet n dry, then when it was finished I'd flat the lacquer with 2000 before polish. If I was prepping a helmet for Chroming, the people that did it specified it was prepped with 2000... Bit of a difference. I always had problems with it and that's why I guess I don't like it. I have bought some off Jon though to back candies with on a new Creme Egg job.
Anyway, I've derailed me own thread here
any other thoughts on scuffing greatly appreciated.
Thanks for your input though chaps
