What does it take to polish calipers? What does it take to polish my calipers on my WS6? What tools would I need? I was thinking about just polishing the brackets and painting the caliper, how hard would this be? How does it hold up? Any info, or experiences would be great! Thanks a lot guys!

I polished mine a while back, I think they look awesome and I get a lot of compliments on them. It IS a lot of work, but well worth it. I still have one left to do because I have no time with school and work. I say go for it, it is WELL worth it in the end. If I get some pics of them, I'll post some.

It can be done while they are on the car with great results.
