The Best Way to Polish SS?

admin

I have the truck rack finished but the polishing is not going exactly as I expected.I started with the Flap disc 60 then 80 grit and left the welds just a little high then flattened them with a belt sander.  I like the results from taking the belt sander and riding on the front roller but I cant do everything this way singe it is directional.  So I grabbed the DA sander and slapped a 100 grit on... not exactly what I was going for.Suggestions?Me!
