Jet-Hot! ![]() Sent from my SM-T710 using Tapatalk Retsel Those look really good, I have the same model CB and would like to get mine done by Jet Hot. What finish is this and how many miles have you put on them since getting them refinished? It is called Chromex. They actually look more like polished aluminum than chrome. I've only put about 1000 miles on them but there are zero blueish. I would sand them a bit prior to sending if I were to do it again. You can see some of the original "bend" lines on the stainless through the coating. Not a big deal. I'd call and check turntime prior to shipping as it varies seasonally. I waited several months to minimize down time. I love them and am very happy with the results. Oh, and it came with a guarantee for one free recoat if there is any problem. Sent from my SM-T710 using Tapatalk Oh, packaging was a challenge. This is how they did it, just for a reference. ![]() Sent from my SM-T710 using Tapatalk Thanks very much, were you talking about sanding with a very fine (high number) grit sandpaper, if so what number.

I must be too young (or perhaps it is only a US thing) so can someone please explain the significance of "blue Play Doh". I think it may be a clever reference to a certain blue, diamond-shaped pill?
