Hello Mr.Tool, they are looking great !! how is the quality from the new set compared to the old one ? I'am glad everything worked out well.

The polishing looks really good, the paint Job not 100% - couldn't you just dip it into some paint ? - instead of spraying

Hello Dave, i looked a the socket again and i think you are right, it must be the polishing before the plating. I also got a old Stahlwille Socket with Chrome-Alloy it looks almost dark - but nothing is coming off - but a few old Gedore Sockets (and some no-name) have chrome chipping.

I just looked at a old Hazet socket and as you can see the chrome plating goes only up to the rim\edge but not over it - i think that is a better solution to prevent Chrome chipping when the rim comes in contact with the surface around the bolt

Hi mac_intosh, 1000 Euros is a lot of money but i think it will keep it's value - it sure looks great !!! For the chrome polish, why don't you try the Autosol that i mentioned before and give us a little review (Neverdull=chemical vs Autosol abrasive) how it works. @North thanks for your...

This doesn't look like paint, it is Chrome chipping that you expect after a couple years of hard use, but not after 5 times. @LeGarage can you return it for refund or replace ? - if not just send Gedore some pictures for there quality management department - maybe they answer and replace the...

thank you !!!

And here is the chrom polish I use on my tools and car to keep all clean and shiny in my opinion the best on the market and it only cost around 4€

Hi, I got this old pliers from a relative who had a carpenter shop and made furniture i don't know exactly what its for - anyone seen this before or got an idea ? it looks like you can bend something in different angle

Yes, they are from Wuerth - but i guess all rebranded, the nice and shiny ones are from Gearwrench i used em once and they got scratches realy fast when i remember the short instructions that came with - it said they are not made to put to much torque on the bolt (with the ratcheting part) - on...

Here is a picture from my basement wall: and a little closer on the wrenches most of my wrenches that i bought are 20 to 25 years old, i got the inch tools craftsman and metrinch when i was younger and had a american made car and later a bike to fix.

I got it at on a swap meet almost 20 Years ago, cleaned it up and put it in a drawer and almost forgot about it - and guess what -after finding this thread i got it out again and looked through all my old (and new) tools. @Alfajuj that old Hazet wrench feels even good when you grab it - smooth...

I'am not sure if you saw this German Company on this thread before - "Champion" Good Quality I think

Some Belzer Automobile wrenches I dont know how old, I got them from someone a while ago (thats why they are not in good condition) - but they are real sturdy.

Thank you all for welcoming me, here I got another one that looks old and it got no model markings at all - like 450 ?

Hi Guys, I found this amazing thread while I was looking for Information on Belzer (now Bahco) Tools, it took me a while to go through all the pages, but its worth, i like Tools new and old and take good care of my stuff, so I looked in my Toolbox where I keep my old mixed up wrenches and found...
