I bought yet another project a few weeks ago, well 3 I suppose, 2 Guzzi Lodola 175's and a 235. One day I'll learn to resist
. Anyway, the guy who was selling them told me that he'd had some parts re-chromed, so I thought fine,that'll save some money. What he didn't mention was that the platers had managed to plate the threads on the swingarm spindle so the nut won't go on, and I have to ask myself, why chromeplate a swingarm spindle in the first place? What I need is a safe, cheap and non-destructive way of getting the chrome out of the threads. It looks like there isn't any copper or nickel, just chrome, all reasonable suggestions welcome.
