It's been a while since I de-anodised my DRB.So time to step up.
I previously hand polished the chassis after removing the blue. but without adequate tools, the finish wasn't really up to spec.
Inspired by the D1:10 chassis contest, I decided to break out the Dremel and add a better finish to the alloy.
The result depends on how much time and polish you use. As you can see, chrome is pretty close.
The DRB bridge is a rough surface so I had to smooth it out before it can get the shine I need.
I'm about 1/2 finished. 6 hours so far.
I could spend loads more time, but honestly, it's awesome off camera. the camera doesn't capture reflection.
Paging Dr. Bung!
