Wr1 center cap refurb service Pff7s

Postby Dayo » Wed Aug 13, 2014 9:50 pm

hi, Iv refurbed my wr1 center caps and even if I say so myself, iv done a bloody good job! just like new.

im offering a center cap refurb service if anyone is interested?

firstly, I paint strip the caps face removing the lacquer and the painted prodrive logo and text. I then clean it down back to the metal disc. Iv had some identical decals made which I then stick on an apply 5 coats of lacquer over the top. resulting in a nice shiney smooth finish. look like new!

this beats paying £200+ for a new set like the dummys are trying to rip us off on ebay :evil:

if anyone is interested please inbox me.

Ill sort some before and after pics out when i get home.

The reason why they corrode is the non sealed edge on the metal disc. The salt gets in and eats away. So i made sure its sealed this time ;)
