The Voyager Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 Just in the process of polishing my engine, it's going to be finished to a smooth glass like touch, how do people go about maintaining the shine?Also what about chrome wheels? Clear coating or just regular cleaning? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Six30 Posted November 13, 2015 Share Posted November 13, 2015 do it the first time with elbow grease ... Then just use a polish after that . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Classickid21 Posted November 13, 2015 Share Posted November 13, 2015 I used wire wall to bare metal, or use a dermal or 1200-1500 sand paper lol and then keep it polished Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eastanglianbiker Posted November 13, 2015 Share Posted November 13, 2015 most alloy coloured engine cases are lacquered with heat resist lacquer once you have polished the casings all yo can do is keep doing it regularly or clear coat it again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raesewell Posted November 13, 2015 Share Posted November 13, 2015 +1 on wire WOOL for the initial polish after that you have to use polish and elbow grease to keep it from oxidising. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
