Polishing fork sliders
hell ya the air craft stripper will get off the clear coat and get you to the metal... do not tell me there is no clear on there... there is!!! i bake it off all the time. here is a pic showing it! I bake the sliders for an hour at 450 to make the clear brittle to blast off easy for powder... here is a pic of the yellowed clear
as said use air craft stripper that will get it off
On rotors I do them flat on a piece of wood with screw to keep it from spinning:
finished:
doing my cafe lowers:
i use a doll rod to hold the rod with my knees to make polishing easier as i am using the sand paper:
done:
I use a buffing wheel when i polish going though about 8 roughes and 4 diffrent wheels, i use a stripper then go though the sanding from 400 - 2000 when i turn it on my wheels i use WD-40 to lube the item so that it does not burn doing this you can get a almost chrome finish
to protect the polised area i use a good wax... if i do a swing arm or something that will see alot of moisture i will use a poly ultra clear powder coat on it
these are just regular angle brackets from home depot that i polished for fog light brackets for my brother... these hve been powdercoated clear
polish is all about taking your time and letting the paper/polish do the work!
