cyclopolisher Has anyone used one to polish their kirkham

Rodney ... The video was cool, an amazing transformation. If it takes 200 hours to polish the trailer with the power tools, I would hate to think how long it would take to polish it entirely by hand ... would probably be like cutting your lawn with a pair of scissors!

Before you attempt your car ... maybe you could first practice on part of an Airstream trailer, then try it on your car. Might be easier that attempting to find another Krikham or a CSX to practice on ...

I should be an expert by the time your ERA arrives, so let know you need my paint buffing services, though I'm not cheap.

Fly to Provo and spend a day practicing at the factory. I will buy you lunch.




The problem with clear coat, is that if you chip it, you can not repair it. The clears that stick to aluminum do not bond well to themselves after they are dry. So as long as it never gets a chip or scratch, it is fine. If you do get a chip or scratch you have to strip the entire panel. If it is anywhere on the main body, that means the entire car. The problem with stripping the clear is that there is no way to get it off without ruining the polished finish. That means you have to start over.

Actually, I did pick up some 6160 aluminum plate on ebay a while back to practice sanding on.

Doesn't hurt to have some 1/4" x 2" or 4" stuff anyway for a bracket or two that you may need to make.
