Exhaust polishing


dobby

Recommended Posts

Well I have the copy HKS true duel and over the 3 months or so of having it I wasnt happy with the tips. They seem to be losing the colour and I didnt like it anyway so after seeing a guy detail a lambo in a particular way I thought I'd give it a go.

I never thought it would work but using 3M fast cut and a DA buffer seems perfect for stainless steel. I was quite shocked at the mirror finish that was before me. It was quite difficult to photo mind being round and all. Heres the pictures.

The difference is clear. Its not like they wern't shiney already however buffers take things to another level. I love mine :yahoo: .

I have now ruined one of the pads so I need a new one to use on paint. Worth it though.

 

Thanks for looking

I jacked it on the fins. I think the cover was removed when the exhuast was fitted. I cant remember how it looks with it on.

 

Thanks for the comments. Although hard to see it is like a flawless mirror in real life. :cloud9: I certaintly have the correct car to buff up as it grabs EVERYONES attention. I love it

Thanks for the info. It is the same exhaust however you need to get it modified to fit around the diff. It is no hassle for an exhuast place to do this. Dont be put off if you live near a Longlife or Powerflow garage. Longlife did mine and they got the exhaust. Cost me £700. I was a little gutted compared to what others paid.
