Help

Anyone got some suggestions on what i need to pollish the valve cover? I see blilbt's, and i like it a lot, bro can you give me some suggestions, i have all the time in the world, just need to know what to use. Im pretty sure some sort of buffing wheel is involved, most likely on a bench grinder, but how bout those scuff pad type things that are twist-lock and go on the pnuematic air grinder? Someone help me out with this because i have heard many different things.....

I didnt even wet sand, just goto walmart (or wherever you get your sand paper) and grab a couple sheets of each from 200 to 2000. Sand with each, rinse excess, repeat until you think its done.

When your done sanding grab some metal polish cream. (I used Maquires) and rub it in, wipe excess. And your done.
