[QUOTE="van Ginneke, post: 23534, member: 375"] Is it possible to take dents out of Birmabright mudguards? The material of the ones I have feels like it's hardened over time (?) or perhaps they are always like that? I have not tried anything -yet- but I would like to know if there are any do's & don'ts when trying to take dents out of them. I thought of making a solid wooden form that fits inside the guard of about 30cm long and as wide as the inside, (one for the front & one for the rear guard) and then using a wooden or nylon hammer on the outside to get dents out, any comments? Or should I do it the other way round? e.g. A wooden form where the guard goes in and hammer from the inside of the guard? One of the guards also has a 'kink' in the beaded edge, anyone any (Birma)bright ideas on taking that out? best regards, Vincent [/QUOTE]
