    I came across your videos 3 years ago and I thought I’d like to give that a try! Went to my local peterbilt, got a few zephyr buffs and rouge bars, threw it on my trusty harbor freight grinder, and started polishing on the truck I was driving at the time… I was hooked the first time I got some shine to come thru. 3 years later I still refer to your videos for advise and tips, your truly an inspiration Evan! Keep killin the game 🤘🏼

    Thanks man. I just started watching your videos. I watch lots from other guys, my favourite part about yours is you always say this is what works best for me and not this is the only way. So thanks for your honesty and you really spend the time to show the difference between everything. I really appreciate it. Thanks

    Evan I’m sure you would know but on the skinny red buff for Peterbilt step’s you also mentioned using it for motorcycle finned cylinder head’s! I was taught by a shop teacher back in the 70’s you should not polish the finned head or cylinder port’s unless the engine is water cooled that they are rough to be able to catch wind for cooling? As I said you probably know this! But if it’s on a show bike that doesn’t run long enough to get hot it probably wouldn’t matter.

    • @EvanStegerMetalPolishing

    10 and 12" wheels are always my go to ive yet to burn a grinder up yet but i maintenance them frequency. great video btw Evan, i used to always run a matchless orange/yellow buff but ive switched to there blue buff for cutting recently and it cuts quite a bit cleaner than a orange or a orange/yellow just a bit slower of a cut but i find its worth it since you save time on the color and finish steps. i never knew buffs from california where water dipped makes sense to me now why my zephyr buffs i used to use where terrible.

    Mr Steger, can you please tell me how to get the cloudiness out of billet aluminum radiator overflow tanks? I have 2 on my f150 Harley Davidsom edition show truck and for the life of me i cannot polish them with wool or foam without them getting cloudy, PLEASE, PLEASE, tell me how and what i need to buy from you to polish them mirror shiny.

    Which buffs do you recommend for smooth headache racks? Hasn’t seen polish in a year or longer, pretty rough. Just need it to look decent and trying to avoid the zebra lines that I keep getting. I started with a yellow buff and brown bar.

    • @EvanStegerMetalPolishing
      @EvanStegerMetalPolishing  Před 3 lety

      Zebra lines come from overlap and pressure issues. Doesn't really have anything to do with the buff itself honestly. Not sure if this makes sense but I'll have some videos this winter explaining it.

    • @jasen0909
      @jasen0909 Před 3 lety

      Thank you for the fast response. Any advice on how to fix them? Recutting with the same buff made them a little less noticeable but they’re still visible. Do you think using a stiffer buff or Should I sand with 600 and recut and try to take more time and be more consistent?

    • @EvanStegerMetalPolishing
      @EvanStegerMetalPolishing  Před 4 lety +1

      What brand of compound are you using? Could be a long list of reasons why it is turning black. Green is a pickier compound. If the metal is pitted and not smooth it will turn black. Humidity or temperature can also be a factor. Applying too much or not enough compound can be an issue.
