Have a black lever on my master cylinder. Anyone know anywhere that you can get chrome/ss/polished levers to replace the black lever????

just take it off and get that one polished or chromed, or cheap way just polish it yourself. I did it with very fine paper and then autosol metal polish

Simple, strip off the coating with nitromoors paint stripper, then polish with solvol Autosol, its easier with an electric buffer tho.
Keep on keepin on

If you use wire wool with the paint stripper it will help remove the paint. You can use the wire wool to mildly polish the alloy as well, if its a fine grade wire wool, it can leave a fairly decent finish prior to polishing.

Nice one. Quick work. Thanks. Didn't realise it was you. I'm kinda new here. Although with my technical and mechanical knowledge, it'll probably take me 4 hours to fit the lever. :shock: :shock: :lol: :lol:
