I am thinking of getting a twin kickstart crank rechromed, at present the splines are in, as far as I can tell, perfect condition. Before I entrust this valuable piece of metal to my local plating company, Wooburn Polishers and Platers, is there anything that I should know or do with regard to the splines. I am slightly nervous as I followed someones advice a few years ago and entrusted a side panel from my honda CB77 petrol tank to what was supposed to be the best plating company in the whole world! or something like that, anyway after waiting a long time to get the job done I went to collect my precious part from the platers, The London Chroming Company, only to be told that because the metal was old, 1964, the polisher had polished right through the metal on a corner and they had to repair it with braze, I think. PS. no those items were not heavily pitted if at all so no excuse there.
