yeah actual process was a bit more in depth
Here is the process I took anyway:
1. Nitromors paint stripper applied with a brush, dabbing not brushing
2. Rub crap off with kitchen roll/blu roll
3. White spirit on a cloth wiped over surface to remove any remaining bits, grease etc. Also it neutralises the paint stripper as if you don't do this(lazy gits) it will pit the alloy and there you have it, you've just wasted all that time and effort!!!!
4. Use quality polishing kit(not cheap ass polishing cloth and my mums first polish from wilkos!) Find out where I bought the poishing kit from later on in the thread.
5. Polish a bit more, and a bit more, and oh yes you guessed a bit more!!
Oh and btw it's not a finished product yet as i said it was just a trial.
NEEDS MORE POLISHING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
