Polishing before anodising or chroming

(1/3) > >>

Jazzchimp:
Can this be done with a bench grinder and a polishing wheel kit or do you need some different sort of equipment?

How do the professionals do it?

Donker:
yes a bench grinder & mop kit will do.

the pro's use the same equipment but on a bigger scale IE: more powerful motor, bigger distance between the wheels for bigger items, larger diameter quality mops and pro spec soap.

the chrome/ano finish will be dependant on the polishing, get the polishing perfect and you stand a better chance of a perfect finish.
examples below show polished example which has then been ano'd:

Donker:
if its a cast component rather than billet material machined, the finish/colour/shine will be different:[/img]

and an alloy pro-class rim, polished and chromed[/img]
