Well i decided to polish a old valve cover i had setting around, i plan on using it once im done.

Here is what the left side looked like after 240 and 400 grit, the right side has been untouched.


After 600 grit


After 800, 1200 and finally 2000


After polish (only done by hand) i plan on hitting it with a buffing pad tommorrow.



**** i used


let me know what u think or

wont the heat make it dull again unless coated with something?

 

slap some metal polish on it after you do the whole thing

man i need to do this to my VC it's beat.

but wait i'd need a backup one beforehand

crap

 

I used to 'spit-n-shine' valve covers using steel wool. I would then polish with Mother's. Worked well, IMO.

 

Good Job!
