polishing an alloy frame?

[apache]

Bench grinder with polishing mops fitted, and some blocks of polishing compound (a cutting grade and a final polish grade at minimum). Leave yourself plenty of room around it, and there'll be tiny areas you cant get to, but SOOO much easier than by hand - though still not easy.

And something like this (but the 6" version - cheap on eBlag)

Can make your tired old Middleburns Minty, your Suntour shiny, and your Proflex perfect!!
