Subject: Re: M45 Tourer Screen Frame Advice
Grateful for both replies.
I have applied some heat but with a brass screen frame I have to be very careful not to distort it !
The vinegar option is one I had not thought of and I will try it. The chrome needs replating so any discoloration is not a problem.
Another option is to seek to cut down the length of the rusted bracket inside the small box section with a hacksaw. It would have to be a ground down hand held blade or a jig saw. However their is only about 10mm clearance so that is difficult and risks damaging the frame that is in quite good order.
I will report back on the vinegar!
Thanks
Mark
