Does anyone here polish?
 

I have a friend that may polish my D1SC for me but haven't gotten a price yet. Does anyone on here do that type of work? I for sure want to do the blower and possibly the intercooler. In the end I may just clean up the cooler really good and slap it on the way it is. Also who can I take all my piping to to get powdercoated? All the piping is kind of old and scratched up.

Thanks

David

KB may do the powder coating for you for a smalle fee.

DSP will be offering powder coating services within a month I hope

KB also polished his KB (that statement just sounds strange...:think: ) on the '03 L. He could probably at the very least give you some tips on polishing the D1. :shrug:

Does anyone know any local places that might sell the multi step polishing kits? I have looked on the web and see lots of different kits, just curious. Also, I found a chrome plating kit that is around $250. Anyone heard of anyone doing that?

Polishing takes a good bit of time and materials. Not to mention the funny casting the blower cases are made out of. I had a coworker attempt to polish mine (same guy that did KB's) and it it didn't turn out.

Now I am just gonna powder coat in reflective chrome :D

Give that D-1 to me... I'll make it shine. :bling:

Loki is gonna try it out I guess. He did the valve cover on one of my Honda's back in the day. He does a bunch of MX bikes and stuff too. I guess we'll see if he had any luck!

I did my bike and some other stuff, Go to eastwood.com and they have all the buffing stuff you need along with the compounds. I use the red and white rouges when I did mine. The prep work before the polishing is the biggest part.

From what I know, Loki is good at it. I'll be interested to see how it turns out

I used to poilish my stuff, but it dirty and time consuming.

Now I just powdercoat stuff ;)
