Hey guys, go tohttp://www.caswellplating.com/index.htmland poke
around, they sell buffing supplies that you can buy anywhere, but on the
site is an instruction manual that will tell you everything you need to
know about buffing aluminum

 A cheap bench grinder, some wheels and compound go a long way to
get
and keep things well polished if you're so inclined. I have all of the
engine covers on my Ducati Pantah motored Alazzurra buffed to what some
have
mentioned look 'show' quality with just that setup. It's not that hard,
just
takes time and I probably only have about $100 in my setup including
materials.

Rich,
Thanks for the info. I guess you figured out that I am getting
frustrated
with polishing out mine. I can't ever seem to get the same results
by hand
that a buffing wheel can get and I can't pay $100.00 every time I
want a
professional shine.
May send them off after this riding season.
See Ya:
