hi gents- right to my prob....trying to bring aluminum to a nice briliant shine. i have all new wheels...sisal w/black compound, spiral wound w/brwn tripoli and loose cotton w/ white compound.
I read everything from Caswell info...took notes for reference....how/when to "cut" and then "color", etc. So, I'm certain I have the "practical" stuff covered i think. I've lived long enough to ALSO be certain it's usually the guy in front the wheel not doing something right!!! -lol !
ok...so i sanded up to 1200 grit. very nice smooth, level surface...half a shine to it. Finish cutting on the sisal....looks awesome, i'm thinking, boy, this is gunna look great.
start some medium pressure cutting on spiral wheel with brown....and i'm getting more deeper scratches than i had with the sisal wheel! obviously cant remove them w/ the loose cotton.
started all over....raked the spiral wheel (with the correct tool) just in case....same result. what gives?? any thoughts?
