[QUOTE="Hucker, post: 286468, member: 19868"] Hey guys, well I broke out the air tools this weekend and decided to try my luck at polishing my swingarm. Frist thing I did was take everything off it, all the nuts bolts/plastic etc and put a crap load of pickling paste on there. Left it on for about 5 mins, got ever speck of oil/dirt imaginable off. Great stuff but don't let the dog eat it :) I started out with some 60 grit on a 9000rpm air tool and that took most of the big gouges and the nasty stuff off. Then went to 80 and 120. I'm starting to get a really shiney look to it, almost like chrome but not there yet. Anyone have an idea what I should do after the 120 grit? I've heard of 1000grit wet sanding, but do I have to do that? Anyone have experience doing this? I understand it takes some time, but i just need some tips with the sandpaper(sanding bits more like it) Thanks :) [/QUOTE]
