Guest Posted October 6, 2004 Report Share Posted October 6, 2004 OK I am getting my MR-23cbs reworked and I need to strip the chrome and copper. Would I loose any softness by leaving the copper off? I have a great idea but I don't want to loose that feel. Is the copper just for the chrome or does it soften the feel? Thanks Matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 6, 2004 Report Share Posted October 6, 2004 I'm talking about leaving them raw, not rechroming Thanks again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 6, 2004 Report Share Posted October 6, 2004 From what I understand copper softens the feel. I'm curious how much more it is to add the copper layer though. I'm thinking of picking up a used set of tn87s and doing the same thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 6, 2004 Report Share Posted October 6, 2004 The TN87 should have the copper already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 6, 2004 Report Share Posted October 6, 2004 The TN87 should have the copper already. Yeah, it does. But want to rechrome a set and what I've been told is the process will take the copper off as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a Miura wedge redone, copper off then you have to put it back on. Matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
judge-smails Posted October 7, 2004 Report Share Posted October 7, 2004 Copper is softer than raw... no question about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 7, 2004 Report Share Posted October 7, 2004 Copper is softer than raw... no question about it. Are you sure?? The copper then gets chromed! I have had some really nice raw stuff, Zodia wedges ect.. The MR-23s should be a very soft casting! I'm thinking of doing a Black Oxide coating to them, Like the black Ox Wedges from Mizuno. I would love to get some more opinions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
