Polished or Brushed Finish?
Which finish you prefer on a Kirkham, Polished or Brushed?
|
brushed !!!!!!!!!!!
but the polished ones are impressive |
Hey bud, it's been a long time. We on the site a few weeks ago.
Are you getting a Kirkham ? Anyway, look at the cobra in the for sale section. It's frickin beautiful but, wouldn't the sun reflect a lot on the body, thus creating havoc with your eye's ? I don't know. I would imagine keeping it clean is difficult ? I do like the looks of the brush finish, with polished stripes though. :cool: |
I prefer brushed finish. I polished mine with about 300 hours of effort and decided I didn't like it as well so I sanded it off and went back to brushed. Polished stripes look very good on a brushed finish.

Brushed with slightly polished ghost stripes...as originally done by da boys in Provo seven years ago, and it has held up beautifully with minimal touchups with Scotchbrite, at least one good wash a year (usually a rainstorm) and a bit of Windex.
It's the driver's finish. |
You have to be a very extra special person to own and drive a polished car. There's literally nothing else like it on the road. It attracts attention like moths to a light.

I am having trouble deciding which car to keep, as I own these two works of art, I think that the brushed looks more original but when I take the polished out the reactions are priceless.
I want to sell one of them, I know that; I just don't know which one :confused: Help:confused: Alfredo Canalizo http://www.clubcobra.com/forums/pict...d=1393&thumb=1 http://www.clubcobra.com/forums/pict...d=2738&thumb=1 |
Alfredo, bring them both to San Marcos in a few weeks and we will all help you decide!
|
I will take the brushed and a red Hurricane, see you there!!

|
That would the best! keep both and one painted, but I will sell one:CRY:
|
Alfredo,
You know my response...BRUSHED with semi polished stripes. |
Polished.
They are from Poland, after all. |
I love the ease of keeping it looking good with the brushed finish. Knock the
bug hits off with windex and you're done. I get more than enough attention as it is. |
Alfredo....definitely polished....you remember the gawks last year at San Marcos.
See you in San Marcos in a few weeks. |
Thanks Russ ! see you there…

Polished, with 20-inch rollers. Impress the boyz in the hood.:)

I know 4 different Kirkham owners in Florida and they are all polished with a brushed stripe.
