Hard work?

[Sean]

Am I the only bloody fool thats tried to polish the elbow part of the inlet manifold?

My god is it hard work  .......  and I\'ve only done one bit!!!:reallymad

[andyrose]

I think Ross @ Dragon Performance does a chrome/polished exchange service for both the inlet & alternator
alternator was about £40-50

looks nice and clean in there

[Sean]

It\'s easy G\'

Get some rough sand paper and rub all the nipples off:rolleyes:
Get some finer sand paper to remove all the grooves you just made
Get some wet & dry to remove all the scratches you just made
Get some metal polish and rub like you\'ve never rubbed before!


After about 48hrs of continous rubbing you will get very sore fingers!;)

hummm sounds OK

so swap that for

1 - dremel with very fine polishing head
2 - lots of polish
3 - sit back after 10 mins with a nice beer

[Sean]

Not that easy!

I used these, and it was still hard work - and only half done - ;
