All the products I used came from lowes  which includes a couple of wood strip wheels, folllowed with wet sanding with 400 grit paper til smooth, then I applied  00, 0000 steel wool pads to remove the visual scratches before I buffed it out with buffing compounds (Rouge and Tripoli) applied with a Sears hand drill.

From what I can see my polish job is close to some of the proffesional jobbrs I have seen, but cant touch the quality of the <span style='color:red'>Veltune</span>  . So being the broke down Pimp that I am and having <span style='font-size:13pt;line-height:100%'>mo time than money</span> I'm satisfied with my backyard finish.

I just had a little pun going on...Most do it yourselfers can do just as good as vel...I ain't polishing shat no more...The problem I had was everyone wants you to do work for them but they don't want to pay you...Simple solution I don't polish anymore...If your gonna do quite a bit more to your bike check out Caswell.com...Thats where I use to order all my supplies...

I'm casually doing the same thing to a set of factory cans that came off of my Busa and it is a lot of work. I figured I would polish and sell them rather than have them sitting around the shop getting in the way. All those fine little ridges that have to sanded down... hehehe. I haven't figured out how to get inside the mounting brackets yet though. I used 400 grit paper too and then on to 600 grit with an orbital sander. I followed that with rough, medium, and fine grade buffs. I dread doing the second can. Your polishing looks great...! Welcome to the Sore Fingers Club and good luck with the 2nd can.

, since this isnt my first time polishing I have learned a new technique which only includes the assistant of using the strip wheelzz I mentioned. This is a very effective way to prep (level) the area quickly and smoothly . When the surfaces are like the midframe section , forks and the mufflers on the Busa.

One can down and One to go
