    haha wont work unless its aluminum, steel rusts.

    If you have a 450r your subframe will polish.

    good write up

    im not here to arque with anyone, but if you want it done right, you gotta have the right tools. I polish professionally and I can say that there is a LOT MORE to it then you have listed. For smooth aluminum what your doing will work fine, but when it comes to cast aluminum its a whole nother ball game !!











    Just a few small examples of my work

    Cast is a pain in the *** to polish haha... I was going to write how to do the cast but I figure not everyone has the right tools for it so I tryed to keep it as basic as possible.

    Does the polishing promote rust? Does it require a lot of maintenance to keep it that shiny?
