It takes about 2 1/2 hours each! But im getting faster at it.

Im Looking into buying all 4 calipers & a Spare Valve cover polishing them. Since they r new, they will go on my car. Then Finishing mine & start selling them for exchange with that person's old 1s & a price for the polishing. Just havent figured out all the details yet. Plus That way when they r ordered, people dont have to wait as long.

Last thing is how many people would actually pay to get this done. I can tell you off the top my head,, it would roughly be around $250.00 to 350.00 per set of 4 calipers. But like a said im still figuring it out.

One word here, liability. Many here would like the service of having there calipers done but to protect yourself I would check into your liability first. Just my 2 cents worth.

I have plenty liability insurance run 2 companys already,, im just worried about all the other things that come with it.
these will be Special order only! im not mass producing these, At least not in the near future! At 1st I Just did this because i didnt want to paint my rotors, because it also fades & chips. Difference is when they r polished like this ,, you buy a polishing kit take of the tire & polish.
the other thing I looked at was chips in the paint,,,,,,,,,,,Well chips in alum will still Shine. And they can be sanding out>> Woohooo

AND as far as swapping parts Still not sure about That. Im basically throwing things at the wall & see wat Sticks.
