    Hi, does anyone offer a reasonable backplate finishing service........after only 2 dives, my backplate is beginning to wear through the harness webbing...
    Can anyone help?
    Cheers.

    I think it will need more than a polishing wheel

    Try Woz hes got an Engineering Company or I am sure Kent reels will do it for a fee then there is postage on top, both ways.

    Perhaps take it back to where you got it to get them to finish it off, if it was supposed to be finished.

    It was supposed to be finished..........I bought it as a complete set up.....over the net from from South Africa ( well, I guess you can work it out! ) as they have no suppliers over here, as I know of.......so I can't exactly take it back.
