After much perusing of yell.com I've had very little success in finding the following services in the north east, anyone where I might find any of the following? The first one is the most important one really.

1)
I could get an engine block and a few other bits and bobs acid dipped/cleaned or thoroughly cleaned by any other method locally?

2)
Anywhere that does chroming locally that are any good? Need a few bits and pieces doing that I don't really want to have to send away for a week or two.

3)
Anywhere that can engrave metal locally, slightly larger stuff (think cam cover sized) not just the back of a wedding ring. Found a couple of places but hoping someone here might have had cause to use somewhere they can recommend. Not too important but it'd be nice.

Muchos Gracias Amigos! smile

Cheers,
Stu

Tell me about it mate frown I know there's somewhere locally that can do the engine, but they're proving quite hard to track down.

Try asking Royle & Co, they might be able to advise you on local people to use:- http://www.david-royle.co.uk

These people are a bit further afield in Manchester but seem to know what they're talking about - http://www.rschrome.co.uk

For engraving try:- http://www.a1-graphics.co.uk/

I don't have connections with any of these places but they are worth a try! smile

Well there's Cleveland Chroming... and a couple of engine recon places such as Auto Services in Stockton and Erimus in Thornaby who can probably get the block dipped.

Sorry Luka, I have facility to do arse dipping but acid dipping would take some sorting. Sounds interesting though, I'll get some phosphoric and find a chav to test it on. Should be fun, I may need to fine tune it so several chavs could be required, even better biggrin

She's far too pretty. I'd rather take this opportunity to see off my neighbours kids. I've been waiting for the right opportunity.
