I usually use glass beads to strip and then plate - the parts are fairly shiny after the glass beads, but the plating comes out dull.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8846314917642465023.post-14684596000231759842013-05-14T09:30:07.546-04:002013-05-14T09:30:07.546-04:00If you have extras of the smaller diameter clamps,...If you have extras of the smaller diameter clamps, I'm in the market for some.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04173120571151733490noreply@blogger.com
