marquez93 Posted May 10, 2016 Share Posted May 10, 2016 Very nice results! I really need to get some metal polish someday. It's one of the few products I don't have because I don't have a ton of uses for it. Fierce5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jswhite Posted May 10, 2016 Share Posted May 10, 2016 SOLID transformations - wow - machine or by hand? I was wondering the same thing myself. Either way, how would use a machine to get in those tight space? Would you use something like a Micro or Nano? Fierce5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fierce5 Posted May 10, 2016 Author Share Posted May 10, 2016 SOLID transformations - wow - machine or by hand? I use the blue 4 inch pad on a cordless drill. The sides/edges of the pads I use to polish the sides and bottom of the pipes, the top I do by hand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mc2hill Posted May 11, 2016 Share Posted May 11, 2016 Which 4" blue pad fits on a drill?? The 4" Metal Polish pads and the 4" Cordless Drill Backing Plate are a great combo for metal polishing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fierce5 Posted May 11, 2016 Author Share Posted May 11, 2016 The 4" Metal Polish pads and the 4" Cordless Drill Backing Plate are a great combo for metal polishing. That's exactly it. The pad will be useless after you're done because it will be oxidized and nasty so be ready to throw it in the garbage, cleaning it is a pain and a waste of time and chemicals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wely324 Posted July 7, 2016 Share Posted July 7, 2016 Awesome before and after results! This thread got me motivated to polish my chrome tips, I have only finished one of the four so far but the one looks awesome. Couldn't get some of the baked on stuff off the lip. My pad got so dirty so quickly. Tried cleaning it and will see how it works once it dries. Fierce5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wely324 Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 yes, i used a blue pad with the drill backing plate and used both #1 and #2 with separate pads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fierce5 Posted July 8, 2016 Author Share Posted July 8, 2016 (edited) The black residue on the edge of the tips can be removed with this combination. Try covering the plastic on top of the tips using masking tape and go at it with the blue pad. Don't worry about cleaning the pad when it turns black. If you keep at it long enough it will buff out Edited July 8, 2016 by Fierce5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wely324 Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 (edited) So I attacked the remaining 3 tips today and got great results overall. One tip tho had small specs that would not come off, I decided to stop once I noticed what looks to be a black coating on the inner lip started to wear away...
