Did a bit of polishing today, and decided to find out just how shiny you can go i you keep going way past blue and a loose mop!

Is there such a thing as too shiny?

 

[Tootyred]

Yes....its hopeless in rthe real world as you would see every tiny mark and it would look permanently poop!

I will probably take it back down a bit...but just for fun....you could probably do your makeup in it!

Was that with a kit or old skool car battery ghetto style?

1994 Serotta Colorado ATi - and a Lot of DIY Anodizing

Aloha Kakou and welcome! A new year and a new project. I was organizing parts and bins this morning and realized I have most of the the items on-hand to start this project. The bulk of the items are here and some will swap out as this build progresses. I accidentally bought a 1" Titec Titanium...

Anodising fun starts at page 7... I think!

Neither. Parts and supplies sourced over time. Though you mention "battery ghetto style" so this is completely possible with 9v batteries
