As part of my Ambo project I picked up a cush drive hub/brake from a
T-3. The brake backing plate is a rough, sand-cast affair which I am
thinking about polishing up to resemble the rest of the housings on the
bike. My question: Have any of you had any luck with polishing these
backing plates? My guess is that the thing looks to be more magnesium
than aluminum and therefore may be consideably more difficult if not
impossible to polish. Suggestions please.
