dajogejr Posted February 10, 2007 Report Posted February 10, 2007 PM RNBRAD, that guy polishes EVERYTHING...and it looks damn good. He has a thread on here somewhere, do a search...on what he uses to polish different items. Quote
RNBRAD Posted February 12, 2007 Report Posted February 12, 2007 You can search my threads for "The polishing guide". I don't recommend polishing any other way. Yes there is a lot of ways to skin a cat and I've done most of them but I promise if you do a set of juggs with a dremmel, you'll never do another set that way. It takes money, as with anything, to do the job correctly. You can spend 20+ hours polishing juggs or you can do them in less than half that time and they will look better when done with the right equipment. :thumbsup: Quote
bigboybanshee Posted February 12, 2007 Report Posted February 12, 2007 ^^^Take RNBRAD's advice, he knows what he's talking about! I did this today, took about 3 hours. :smile: Quote
