i am restoring a 63 lincoln with miles of stainless..
ive been working on the smaller parts first using a da sander with grits from 320 to 1500 then move to a spiral wheel with emery..
problem is the wheel takes forever to get the sandpaper scratches out...i could spend 2 hours on a 2 foot long trim piece and it still wont be perfect..
heres my pile of homework..minus two 4" x 5 foot rocker panels..and fender trim..

i just ordered the sisal wheel and the f515-6154 and f515-6147 compounds should this solve my problems??...
i was also wondering about this thread...could it possibly be that easy to remove the chrome/chromium plating that it on these lincolns..i just cant believe a chemical could remove the outer plating without harming the stainless underneath..right now i am sanding off the outer layer and that step actually doesnt take too long with 320 on the da sander..but still am looking for an easier route if possible..
