I've got some well I should say 'did' have some battered LOOK pedals and pondered what to do with them,
The bearing are still super smooth and still function as they should, I first thought... 'put them on my winter bike'
But then pondering away[forum member TGR quote by the way 'pondering'] shall I strip the old
paint off and file off all the scratch's and make them good again and this is what I did!!
Worst thing is i've no pictures of what the pedals looked like which would help this thread :roll:
I spotted some high quality paint in a supermarket and of all places it was ALDI and it came in blue
which looked too much like Gios blue and that got me pondering even more, work pedals for my Gios!
The paint isn't car paint but like an enamel paint which dries hard but doesn't chip or mark easily.
Contacted a decal maker and he then made me some 'one off' decals for the soon to be 'fake' Gios pedals
Pedals repainted in the nice blue colour!
Decals made, The gold decals are for another project.
I'm happy with the outcome! What you guys think ?
