Automotive chrome polish and a microfibre cloth.
When I get scratches I put the part back on the lathe and start sanding lightly with 220 grit then work up to 1000..1500..etc
Kind of hard to make the part smooth and the scratch disappear if you don稚 have a lathe to hold it. Dremel work turns out nicely if you are careful..as you were with the pommel. Another trick is to use a sanding block with very light pressure. The block spreads the force out evenly. One thing that bugs the crap out of me is careless people with clunky rings! Dang I want to slap them! I have started asking them to remove their jewelry when handling a polished saber....LOL
Thanks k6gad!
Yeah, you have to look out for people wearing rings, like Frodo and Bilbo.
How shiny does polish make aluminum? As shiny as new parts from tcss, or is it slightly duller?
Is elbow grease nescecsery, or would just polish by itself make it look chrome?
Ha. Elbow grease comes from your arm. It’s the amount of effort you’re willing to put into polishing.
