    Need help with polishing!!! Have no idea how to do it.

    Ok, heres what i knwo and correct me if im wrong.

    I will sand what im doing if there is any paint on it. If theres crud or grease i remove it. I then spin my little wheel on whatever im polishing. Then i get a fine rag and i dab it in the compund and i wax what im polishingin circles. Then i let it set for a few minutes. then i polish it every once in a greta whiel to keep it shineing?


    tell me if i got this right.

    and i need any polishign equipment any oen has.

    the only negatives i know of are that you HAVE to keep it clean or it looks like chit. if you polish anything that is made to disperse heat it takes away from that quality.

    not quite. your goin to have to polish that thing all the time to keep it shining. especially if you do any riding in water or mud. its a lot of work but if its done right, it looks great.
