Default Polishing. Who here wants to make money?

Is there anyone on this forum who is very good at polishing and is reputable?? I want to have my bicycle frame done. I have ZERO patience to do such a thing and would rather pay for it to be done. The frame is aluminum and i will have it sandblasted before I send it out. I thought about having it chrome plated but I never got a response from The member on here for pricing. Places around my area will not do small orders unless I am paying at least $1000 and I can have it 24kt gold plated for half that so


Let me know if you'd be up for making some money

if you're interested in chrome, i can do whatever you need. click the link in my sig. i can guarantee you though that it's not cheap to do any kind of high sheen finish, whether it's what we do, real chrome plating, or gold plating. the benefit of the process we do is that you can do any color or finish that you want, you're not limited to just chrome or just one type of gold.

also, unless there's severe pitting or other types of corrosion then there's no need to sand blast the frame. in fact, sandblasting might make the price go up. the majority of the price in any type of refinishing is the prep work. sandblasting a surface requires both etch and surface priming. if the powdercoat or painted surface of the frame is still in decent shape, you could save a lot of money by not blasting it.

PM'd but I've already done the whole top dollar paint job thing before. Was not durable at all for what I put the bike through. The powdercoat on there now is unbelievably strong but I'm looking for something new
