As this was a tag team job, I will let Bob disclose that if he wants to.

I don't know about it being award worthy, but I'll happily take the cool mil though. Thanks!

I don't remember what I did after that. Probably a white or green pad with power finish or final finish. Topped it off with Zaino Z2.



50/50 with just the compound
Oh I wish this one polished out that easy! We started several steps up....GG 6" + Surbuf + M101.

They are lug bolts. Lots of European cars have them.
