Anyone out there have much experience with buffing metals? My latest
tool-toy is a heavy duty grinder/buffer and I couldn't help but shine up
some aluminum fork legs that I am going to put on a Honda 350 that I am
building up to hopefully race in the AHRMA Sportsman class. My question
is, once the aluminum is cleaned and buffed, what should I coat it with
to keep it ooh so pretty looking? Any helpful hints for buffing such as
good wheels/compounds?
Thanks in advance for any tips....
