I sent my Red-Tip Rocket to Chris for Nickel Plating. After he received the razor, he applied deep cleaning.
Then, he recommended me that only tune-up service was enough for this razor and he recommended to keep original plating. 
He costed me only $20, and he sent me the razor like brand-new condition.
I paid after he completed the process and he sent me the photos. 
His service was excellent and I decided to add pre- & post-restoration photos here. 
If you have a vintage razor need restoration, do not hesitate to send him. http://www.razorplate.com/

Very nice work! It's always nice when you can save the original finish.

Looks new or re-plated to me. What did he do exactly?

The UK made red tip superspeed is my all-time favourite vintage razor.
I reckon it would give a wolfman 1.05 WR2 a real fright.

Chris did amazing replates on a Redtip and a Fatboy for me months ago. His communication and speed of turn around are stellar. I highly recommend him.
