Thanks for the video. I spent several years polishing motorcycle parts as a second job. I think you would get faster and better results if you were to use Black Emory compound on the hard wheel for the first cut, clean the wheel with a screwdriver or such, then use white compound on the hard wheel, then white on the soft wheel for a mirror shine. :)

I did mine by hand using a combo of Soft Scrub, 1500 and 2000 grit paper and then 0000 steel wool, finished it off with metal polish - Came out pretty good, not as shiny as yours, but almost. I’d never do it again because it nearly killed me! My hands hurt for a week - My advice to all … Leave it dull !

Отдаёшь токарю. Он на большом станке делает по краю насечку. Получается как в оригинале. Остальное можно обычным автотрезаком зачистить. Вернее сначала трезаком, потом край токаркой.

Hey mate, now this is a great video! thanks for all the info. I have a question regarding my Technics sl120 mk1 platter. Its all aluminium platter with small groves in the middle. Would the polish wheel be too strong for the platter? I dont want to accidentally remove any metal. <br><br>Happy to send you photos. Thanks mate.
