I wanted to polish them to a nice glossy finish but I gave up.:sweat_smile:

hand polishing those tiny stuff isnā€™t as fun as I thought it would be :sweat_smile:

They will stay frosty :cold_face:

You might have actually found a use for all those tiny extra polishing wheels that come with Dremels and their knockoffs.

This plus polishing compound would take no time.

Lazy way: masking tape tape and gloss clear coat.
(Edit - this might look a bit better but still not the same as polishing them)

Oh god. Iā€™m working through my second package of those. I think the pic is from what I ordered on Amazon.

The ones that have the built in spindle are much better. These loosen up and spin.

Motherā€™s polish is the product you want for compound.

Iā€™ve done hangers, 4 gear drives, a set of bergs, and surfnacho wheels.

Itā€™s an old Rayne Vandal V1 that had been collecting dust which I found priced down. No plans to electrify yet but itā€™ll be a nice analog for the moment

I dig the frosted pink.

Local seller had on FB, and it was posted in an NYC chat. I messaged the gentleman and offered to drive right over.

Met @Brently @jack.luis and @EDness and had a good short chat.

Good time, definitely a positive day.
