POLISHED STOCK CANS

For support I build a jig using three pieces of wood nail together in a U shapeto to craddle muffler covered with a rag or you can hold it between your legs.

Forgot to mention after using 1200 grit paper (wet sanding)I used 3M clear coat rubbing compound and finished it off with Mother's Aluminum Polish .

is there any way to polish out suzuki's warning label stamped into the cans? why do they insist to stamp a novel into the side's of the mufflers!!

I went over it again with the 1500 and 2000 grit since that pic and polished the hell outta it. Looks way better and very happy with the results. Next is the pegs and maybe frame..
I was cursing you for giving me the polish bug!

I feel ya dawg (poor fingerz).

you can not get rid of the stamped warning... the metal is altered by the stamping process and is physically different than the surrounding metal... we fought this with anodizing on our race car parts, welds will also do this..

props for the hard work and the great polish job... certainly more than I could pull off
