Anything else you want me to find for you?.......

Ha ha, i've already looked at that lol, seems that i don't have the required permissions yet! being a newbie and all that.
Must have to do so many posts or whatever b4 they let you do that,

Perhaps your trying to upload directly?

copy the link and put it in img tags?

paste the link.

i.e.

www.example.com/image.jpg

highlight it and press the Img button, which will put tags aroudn it and post.

I bought a kit tbh its very time intensive the end results are a lot like painting preparation preparation preparation if there's any flaws pitting and the surfaces aren't perfect prior to the plating process then it's a waste of time.
The kit I have is a bright nickel kit I have had some good results on small parts wheel nuts carb tops etc but the time involved in doing it made me question my own sanity tbh lots of hours spent with little to show I only bought a kit as at the time couldn't find any where local to do it. Have since found somewhere and that's where any future stuff will be getting done with all the blast mediums etc less hassle unless you have lots of spare time and patience.

well that's it, just done the dirty with pay pal and bought the ultimate zinc kit + a few extras.
Should be delivered before i get home, then I've got four weeks playtime before going back to work.
Will need to set up the garage like a chemistry lab. Well make some flipping room anyway.
