Here's some pics of my neighbors '01 GXSR 600 I polished over the past 2 weeks -

I did the frame, subframe, peg mounts (front and back), pipe, swingarm, rear caliper mount, a chain guard and a master cylinder gaurd.











And I also touched up a few things on my motor...I need to get a Corvette distributor cover so I can polished that too-





Not too bad for a kid huh.

I've been thinking about starting a little business doing polishing. Things like superchargers would be fairly easy for me. Just give me a few weeks because I want to finish my front wheels that I already started on. I just need to buy a bench grinder/polisher for $100 at Sears and I'll be all set.

Let me know what you guys think.

 

Looks really good its amazing what you can do with some polish. I have polished a few things for my car and people cant believe how it looks. keep up the good work.

 

Thanks

 

>I should have you polish my Vortech satin elbow .
I was debating on whether or not to buy a polished one and sell the satin one .
how long do you think it would take you to polish it up ? and what are we looking at for $$$ ?

 

wow that looks really nice

you should take closer pics so that you can really see the polishing

what have you been using to polish up until now?

 

If its what I think it is, it shouldn't take me too long. Maybe a few days tops. Is this it, the aluminum peice going into the Throttle body? - Vortech Elbow

Jayman - I've been using the following steps

220 dry.
400 dry.
600 dry.
1000 wet.
1500 wet.
2000 wet.
Turtle Wax rubbing compound.
Turtle Wax polishing compound.
Tripoli on a buffing wheel.
White rouge on buffing wheel.
Red rouge on buffing wheel.

Then finally Eagle One aluminum polish with a rag. I would have taken closer pictures but I was using a Kodak one time use camera and it would look fuzzy If I went up close. To be honest, most of it came out looking like a mirror.

 

>yes that's the piece .
