Default Re: Repolishing questions

Thanks for the replies guys. I had a friend of mine that owns a bike shop
professionally polish the bike. He removed the factory clearcoat and stripped
the metal down to the raw aluminum before he polished it to a shine. The bike
has looked great the past 2 years, but this year it's beginning to look dull.
I would ask him to retouch up the bike, but he has closed the shop and moved
out of state. I would like to try to do this myself so in future, I can easily retouch it up and have the experience to do it again and again. I'm going to
pick up the brown polish with a soft wheel and find the fastest drill I can find and hopefully that will remove the haze, than hit it with the white on a new wheel right after that.
