polishing valve cover
 
yea, I am a lazy fuck, and there is no way I am going to spend more than 2 minutes sanding a valve cover. Is there any reputable people on here who polish valve covers? Anyone willing to polish mine? I am not in a rush, I have two covers, but i do not want to wait 3 months for it (boostinboy this means you )


so yea,,

Anyone want to polish my valve cover?

I will pay for shipping both ways, and for said labor



I am considering having my turbo polished too




thank you

Well, Braineack admits to be good at breaking things...


Realistically? It's all about taking your time and fussing over it. I have spent probably 2 hours on mine, and while it looks better (more of a brushed finish), it's nowhere near done. I'd not do it for anyone else for less than about $100, and that's not guaranteeing anything. Good luck finding someone to do it without spending a fortune or having it look like crap.

the polishing part is easy, sanding down cast aluminum to be smooth enough to polish takes forever. i thought about media blasting it
