    Hi Again D D,
    spoke to both your leads neither could help themselves,
    but they both gave me other platers names,
    and Hey Presto am sorted a platers
    (family business) in Weston Super Mare
    who have been there forever and even knew what a Rickman frame was
    booked in for 6 weeks time
    So thanks to D D and the forum the issue is sorted
    Cheers all Clive

    You could always try asking theses if they do their own or have a supplier?

    Thanks Adie,
    I see you are in Devon, so the platers are down your end of the country
    at Weston Super Mare, they are called Doug Taylor Metal Finishers,
    Banwell, North Somerset
    I had been in touch with Gerry Lisi at Rickman motorcycles,
    But his platers would only tackle new first time nickel plating
    as opposed to what I need
    which is stripping polishing and re nickel plating
    Thanks

    Hi Clive. Banwell -- interesting and useful to know. I think I may have already picked up one of their cards at one of the Shepton Mallett shows so I'll be interested to know how you get on in terms of cost/quality/turnround, etc. They're certainly close enough to me to drive and drop off/collect work. Thanks.
