Dont get your alloys done mate,

The process embrittles them and then they tend to break on trackdays.

Alloy refurb firms should be aware of this problem Jay and should have lower temperature procedures in place. It can be done Lee, but please check the company you choose know what they're on about or walk away :thumb:

Use an aerosol, much easier :wedgie:
