What do you all use to polish the metal like the Intake Manifold and throttlebody? I have a Dremel with the basic attachments. I also have a good high speed Makita Drill.

What kinda bits and attachments provide good results? wire brush bit? etc etc? My ZC motor is a bit grimey from sitting around in a warehouse. want it to shine a bit.

comments and tips are welcome.

 

you mean like mine?

here lemme fix that

 

thanks man i always have a hard time posting pics

 

is this a d15b vtec or a d16z6????
really want to know were he take the exaust manifold if it's a d15b

 

Hmmmm what did you use to polish that ... looks nice. or did you send it out

 

ok first off it's a d16z6.um to polish it i took it and had it tanked first at amchine shop to clean it.then i took scotch brite pads with a high speed grinder to get all the rough stuff out.after that start wet sanding with med grit sandpaper and work your way down to finer.i use blue magic polish from advance auto parts to start plishing.lots of circles daniel son!jk um basically it will start to come up slowly.i use a dremel with polishing pads for the hard to reach stuff.when all is said and done i use a mothers wax paste to give it a nice seal.oh yeah the ehaust mani is a drag gen 2.good luck with yours.it is very time consuming work and montonous ,but in the end the resluts speak for themsleves.good luck

 

What kinda of Engine Paint did you use? Was that hi-temp enigne spray paint? or an brused on Hi-temp lacquer paint? it looks good, Just curious.

 

That's nice and polised....good job...looks really good.

 

I like the big picture this time!
That's a really nice shot, and nice work.

 

the block is powdercoated. easy to clean up.
