    Who are people using for decklid grill restoration besides King of Trim?

    So, after years of patronage, untold thousands of dollars spent, and numerous online kudos, I'm sadly at the end of my rope with King of Trim. I'll spare everyone the details but my last two experiences have been just shockingly bad. Not only because of the poor quality work but also because they don't seem to give a damn. Don't know what happened to these guys.

    Fortunately, Shaun at Tru-6 is exceeding my expectations on plating and anodizing but I'm still looking for someone who can do the extra-delicate restoration work on items like decklid grills. Anyone have a good referral for me?

    I echo your post. I have my own stories. Shaun is working on my grill now. When his tooling is done he should be quicker.
    He is super dedicated to quality thus he is overwhelmed with work.

    Thank you Gentlemen.

    I've had to fix 2 sets of KoT work.

    JP, I'll send you a link to my grille restoration thread when I get a photoessay put together, hopefully early next week.

    Shaun: You should not come on this thread or website and bad mouth others work....You have disappointed on several projects...and as the saying goes....those in glass houses should not throw stones.
