The new James Bond film ‘No Time to Die’ may be delayed again, but here we take on a difficult mission to restore the chrome on an Aston Martin DB5 chrome bumper. This is the same type of car used in many of the James Bond films from Goldfinger to Skyfall and Spectre.
This bumper arrived in a terrilble state. Full of holes and rusted through, but we take on the challenge and restore this rusty old chrome bumper to it’s former glory.
This video takes you through all of the processes in detail. You can see all of the work and skill needed to restore this bumper.
