i think that's the prettiest polished job i've seen. way, way, way better than what i've done.

That looks awesome. Glad you are enjoying it. What a great first mechanical mod. Just polish to get the wrinkle off? What polish please?

Thank you ! I use 3M 400 grit sand papers followed by 600 ,800,1000, and 2000. To make it shiny I use Mothers mag polish and Never Dull ,took me more than eight hours !

Thank you for the kind words but to be honest I am quite happy since it is my first time doing something like this !

On a REO with a painted or anodized finish you can use the sandpaper. If you start with the Tumbled then all you will need is the Mother's Mag and Never Dull to keep it shiny!

That is nice. I've read a couple threads on how to do that but is there one recommended with detailed instructions? I mean detailed I dont play well with power tools and wood shop tasks. I built a stool once, who knew 4 legs was key.

Welcome Anthony, that is a fine job on that mini. I have a silver hammertone 2.1 and it's quickly becoming my go to mod.
