    Just finished up this Carter WD-O. Came out great and I think it looks good to boot. What do you think of the polished look? We have been doing it this way for years. Does it take away from show status if it is the original yellowish color?

    Looks great! Glass bead followed by a buffing wheel?

    Voodoo no it is just a wire wheel. I hand buff every part if possible to get it that shine. Depending on the casting sometime glass beading is needed to get this look.

    Saltflats I will have to let you know the customer hasn't picked it up yet. Hopefully it will cure his problems.
