cast alumn haze
Hello every one I just found this forum and it looks awsome. My name is Bill and I have been polishing for about a year now. I still get in a few binds now and then. This is an art. I did have one question, I know all alumn. is different, but my cast alumn. is my most inconsistant. Some mirror and some will have a gray haze. It's not the compound haze or pits but a casting haze. Its like looking at a dirty mirror. I will re sand and you will see the holes. sand them by hand and more will come out. Any suggestion. Thanx in advance. Bill

After you get to the final step of polishing try the flannel cotton and the blue compound.
