i have the rocker covers off my CA and have stripped them back to bare metal to paint but thinking i might polish them, whats the best way to do this? would i have to get them done profesionally?

if you want your rocker covers to shine all you need to do is buff the covers on a bench grinders buffing whell with plenty of polish on the wheel ,, will go all black but then you rub back with paint thinners on a rag,, looks really nice aswell

yep, a stick of polish, and a buffing wheel on the bench grinder

now all i need is a bench grinder, i tryed usin this stuff you put in a drill but didnt realy work, ill have to hunt down a bench grinder. also what is a good polish to use and were could i get some, just a hardware store?

we get our polish from blackwoods, it comes in a hard white ingot shaped chunk.
you can get it from autobarn in a not so big chunk too.
get the polish wheel going and apply stick to spinning wheel, then apply your job.

i think i got some of that it came with the small polishing kit i got, the actual wheels arent strong enough but the polish might work. cheers guys

this is wat i do .....................
go to mums cubord :) grab the dish washing fuild and a old sliver steal fuzy scruber thing 1 bucket of water and mix in the dish washing fuild and dip in the fuzy steal scruber and rub the #### out of the alloy it works well and its free

if its the same polishing kit i have with a white chunk, and a grey coarse chunk, its the same stuff. works fantastically.

the polish might work but the actual wheels that go on the drill are pretty average

they are indeed.
you really do need a nice thick one on a bench grinder
