theshee Posted February 21, 2008 Report Share Posted February 21, 2008 wondering if polishing cases can be done!..also wanting my carbs done..who does polishing carbs? I polish, but those are 2 things I will wont do. Cases are too big and hard to do, and carbs have too many small spots. I know cascase does the best work on carbs, but I dont think they will take the cases to polish. Powdercoating the cases is the way to go.

KaosBanshee44 Posted May 26, 2008 Report Share Posted May 26, 2008 Did a search and had to bring this topic back up, i started polishing my cases the other day talk about a bitch. But where are the people that have done it what tips do you use for your dremel i can't seem to find a good one to start out with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KlotzBanshee Posted May 26, 2008 Report Share Posted May 26, 2008 I did kind of a half-ass'd polishing job on my case while it was apart this winter. I used a dremel with the extension wand and the little 512E finishing buffs (about 20 of them) to start. Then I just used the small Mothers power ball and some Mothers Incredible Billit to bring a nice deep shine. I could have spent more time on it and got better results, but it looks ten times better than it did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KaosBanshee44 Posted May 26, 2008 Report Share Posted May 26, 2008 Yeah see that looks real good. I started out with those little wirebrush dremel bits to smoth and clean the cases first but i think i'm starting off with the wrong polishing bit. I'm gonna tackle it some more today when i get off i'll get me some of those bits you mentioned and try them and get that mothers ball. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KlotzBanshee Posted May 26, 2008 Report Share Posted May 26, 2008 looks sweet Thanks, not bad for my first time I guess. Yeah see that looks real good.

I'm gonna tackle it some more today when i get off i'll get me some of those bits you mentioned and try them and get that mothers ball. Thanks Use the finishing buffs dry (no polish). It took like 20 of them (at fuggin a buck fifty a piece) to do top, bottom, and the counter sprocket area. And try that Mothers Incredible Billit ($13 a can, but the shit is awsome), not the liquid stuff they sell for use with the Power Ball. BTW- dont forget to wear safty glasses and a dust mask, shit flies everywhere...good luck, and take your time. Any questions, hit me up. :thumbsup: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
