Thought i would share a nifty and handy trick.
Ever wanted a exhaust pipe to have that old school brass look?
Or how about nice shiny Bar ends?
Well i have a handy and easy trick to get that same look, with just this.
And This!
Heres how you do it, put the brass wire wheel into you drill, dremel or angle grinder.
Fire up your Torch.
slightly heat up the metal object you want brass finished. careful not to get it too hot that it either melts or starts to discolour.
Once its heated up take the brass wire wheel to the object and watch it change color.
Yes, its just that simple. this method works best on metal objects that are not usually subjected to lots of heat. also to keep that shiny brass finish look, just spray some clear enamel clear coat onto it. Except for exhaust pipes. with exhaust pipes the brassing will eventually fade when subjected to heat over and over again. but if you want to keep your scoot, or motorcycle looking sharp. just do the process over again.
Hope this help some people wanting to do a custom look.
