Forks Prep Work





Tonight I used a "scotch brite" style steel wood to smooth off the lower fork tubes. I used Norton brand medium course steel wool with Simple Greeen to remove all oils and grease. I removed the corrosion, and roughed up the smooth sections. I plan to take them to work to grind off the casting marks and rough spots that cannot be simply smoothed over. I also started roughing up the chrome front fender. I will need to aggressively remove the corrosion form the underside. I plan to remove the hood ornament and leave that chrome, when I paint the front fender so it will stand out more.
