Reply:Looks nice!What kind of boat is it going on?
Reply:No real secret to putting a nice shine on metal. You just use finer and finer grits of sandpaper followed by buffing with the right compounds. We polished alum projects in Jr high shop. took them from sand cast all the way up to a mirror shine. It's all about taking your time and working up thru the grits. You need to take out all of the marks left from the previous grit before moving on to the next. Too many get impatient and want to be finished rather than take the time to do it right..No government ever voluntarily reduces itself in size. Government programs, once launched, never disappear. Actually, a government bureau is the nearest thing to eternal life we'll ever see on this earth! Ronald Reagan
Reply:this stuff here is some of the best polish I have ever seen.http://www.whitediamondamerica.com/p...p/polish01.htmIf you cant fix it with a hammer, it must be an electrical problem."Boy, everyone starts with a full bag of luck and an empty bag of experience. The trick is to fill the bag of experience before the bag of luck is empty."-Grandad circa 1990ish
Reply:Thanks for the kind words fellas. I just used my trusty Baldor with 10 inch cotton buffs, and a series of compounds. |
