Splice frame help / I could use a little guidance.

[SharkSugender]

I did some searches online and found a thread that sent me right back here. Some dude a couple years back said he used formula 88 from home depot. I'm there 4 days a week and never heard of it. But lo and behold there it was. I disassembled the frame and put the uppers in a party cup filled with this red stuff. 10hrs later, I took em out and removed the clear film that was coming mostly off. I cleaned them with dawn mixed with water. They almost look like polished black now. I'm just glad I didn't send my black chromes in. -Lesson learned.

Nice!

I popped lenses into my White Chrome Ten X the other day and messed up the finish. That FMJ coating is fragile when it’s old.

Yes, they can be. Mine were solid and as new. until...
