Just receieved my intercooler couple days ago, and wow! Looks great! But yet, i somewhat want it to polish up and look better?

When i receieved it.


So I went out and bought MOTHERS INCREDIBLE BILLET METAL POLISH, which works for aluminum, billet, brass, gold, and other polishable metal! Which I assume it to work ok, but WOW, I am damn impressed! -=D



This was how it look before. Was still nice. -



After a 30 sec rubbed on and off of the Mother Metal Polish. Wah la! Mirror finished! It even gave the beads a nice Shiny finish!



Time to complete the rest of the Intercooler. - Maybe another round to go over it one more time, to give it a best of the best look to it~

Side to Side comparison. - bad images, need better lighting, but you guys get the point. -


MOTHERS INCREDIBLE BILLET METAL POLISH I give a thumbs up!

(((((((((((((((((( SCROLL DOWN FOR MORE PICTURE )))))))))))))))))))))

I had thought so too! Was thinking about letting some profession polish shop do the whole intercooler for me, but I ran across this and gave it a try and wow. Screw paying $$$ for someone else to polish it when you can! I will hook up my buffer and see how it will turn out, instead of doing it by hand. -=P

 

the buffer will really make it shine.

 

how much did that stuff cost?

 

That comparison shot is great. I can't believe it worked that good.

Actually it was pretty pricey. $11 at autozone, but in my opinion.. Its well worth it. You will need to use about 10% of what it came with for the whole intercooler. There was another simliar product from MOTHERS also. Which was made only for aluminum and something else...(forgot)...For $4? Who knows that will work the same? but i risked the bet and bought the $11 bottle. and FVKIN Wow?!

Wait till I post a finishing touch to it. One by hand and another with the buffer. -=P

Overall, well worth the money! I give them a 's Up!

 

take keys, goes out to buy a can of that thing....

 

incredible

 

- Thank you....

Thank god i went out and tried it. Now lookin good then ever~

For others who is going to try it, get some before and after pictures. I want to see results from u guys too~!

 

Thats a big difference right there, good stuff

 

damn, the mothers really worked! bling bling now huh?

 

I just finish polish my 18 inch rim. Wow.. I can see my self in it, like a mirror..

 

damn, those are some good results

 

Heres few more pictures of the whole intercooler being done. I just did it real quick, just to take these pictures. TOmorrow or so, I will get the buffer out and work on it. -=P Then the real polishing begins, but for now, hand polishing isn't so bad. Still need some more cleaning up to do, but for now..Here it goes..

 

Pretty good results compared from a dull intercooler when i first got it, to a shiny IC...

 

Wow, That worked really well

I need to go pick some up

 

Thanks to Honda-Tech, we learn and find out something useful and new everyday.

It all goes around, we share..

 

send me your bottle so I can polish my IC, im cheap j/k

 

Who knows, I can be a nice guy,. We will see after i machine buff it tomorrow.. Then see how much i have left over. -=P

 

wowowow, ill be picking some of that up

 

blaaaang. I love making things shine too
