Will it polish out (frame, swing arm, engine casing?)
Cans will be fine. They are off an RSV which I pulled the guts out of so I will just open it back up and knock it into shape for the track. I have the originals which I just finished coring out - so these will go back on.

The frame and swingarm are anodised so I'm not sure what to do as polishing will be ok - but needs more i think. The frame should have been black anyway so it maybe an idea to strip it and powdercoat it - maybe the swingarm as well but there are lots of cheap ones kicking about so optional replacement. Will look at the costs and intended use and go from here.
