This all starts with this kit.

Image

The markings at the bottom.

Image

The kit comes in a very nice chrome/nmf finish.

Image

I decided to remove the chrome/nmf finish with thick bleach.

Image

Before and after.

Image

Washed under running water then a good soak in soapy water followed by flushing with warm water. Allowed to dry over night.

Laid out for priming.

Image



End up with white finish.

Looks much better without that chrome to build in. Nice start and your ripping through it.

cheers
