Brake lines How do I polish up the lines coming out of the abs block? Is this something I can just put some rubbing/polishing compound to by hand, or is this something thats going to take a dremel/ect? I don't mind wiping them down/keeping them clean often afterwards as the car is not a DD.
I used 1000-1500-2000 grit sandpaper. Then mothers aluminum polish(or maybe it was their billet polish, I dont remember) with a polishing wheel on a drill. But after a while they will get some surface rust, so you will have to hit them with the polishing wheel again. Im going to try clearcoating mine.
I started with 400 grit sandpaper and worked up to 2000.. then I got out some aluminum polish and used my dremel with a cotton wheel on it.. worked like a charm.. for maintenance you just need to keep them clean and rub down with the polish again every 2 weeks or so.
