Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

    Surprised you have not had a response yet...

    Anyway, if your parts are not too bad you may be able to clean them up, I had good results with just tin foil and salty water

    Tons of places in the UK but brexit has fcuked everything up.....are you in a hurry for it..??
    As Mr.Costigan said a good result can be had from tin foil and salty water or coke if its not too bad...but as its a bumper you'll need to keep on top of it ,especially with our weather...

    Chrome-ing is an environmental disaster.
    There are places here though . Ring the galvanizers and they might refer , or put you on track .
