[RBW] Re: Have you polished scratched Nitto?

2011-11-11 Thread William
At the Christmas gift steal like 8 years ago I ended up with a bench 
grinder.  My work bench was small, so I never bolted it down.  Now I have a 
bigger garage I was going to build a bigger workbench so I'll finally be 
able to mount it.  Maybe I'll live with the Nitto scratched up until that 
infrastructure falls into place.  :)

William,

I'm doing this right now on some parts, fine grit sandpaper
(400,500,600 etc), followed by simichrome has been working for me.
for parts with matte finishes like nitto this has been working really
well for me.

I have done this in the past, use a gray scrubby pad by 3M then 3M
metal and chrome polish. Just keep polishing back and forth using them
both until the scratches disappear, works great. And no I dont work
for 3M but have done painting and polishing for years and they make
great stuff.

If you don't have access to a bench grinder that you can mount a
polishing/buffing wheel to and get different cutting/polishing
compounds I'd go this route. Especially if the scratches are deep.
There is no easy way. They both take time and are messy. This method
just requires more elbow grease. I've done it both ways. Takes time
but sure looks nice when it's done.
