Looks your doing a damn fine job. You should polish your Alternator, diagonal braces etc.. and make your whole engine bay polished. Omgsh sexy, but alot of work

thinking about it lol i think i might just buy the polished braces and dog bones from 3800performance but there crazy expensive, but my alternator defiantly needs a polish big time!

Re: 97 GTP Coupe White on White "bought Gen 5 Blower!"

I tried to polish my factory stb, first time i tired polish. had over 10 hours in it and well i gave up and just painted it. 3 of those hours were R & D and trail and error. but i messed it up so bad that i couldnt bring it back and get the fine scratches out

Re: 97 GTP Coupe White on White "bought Gen 5 Blower!"

whats wrong with a die grinder i never have problems with them lol, there not good to use before primer if your painting but if your removing the old paint it should work fine maybe you should try and use a more course disc.
 
Re: 97 GTP Coupe White on White "bought Gen 5 Blower!"

It scratched it all up with a lot big deep ones that I couldn't get to come out
