When I polish my stuff I will attach a piece of plastic plumbing pipe to it so it doesn't get away, the pipe is flexible and sturdy. I have seen some experienced guys get hurt pretty bad from a piece that took off.

--Yea I have the HF drill mounted wheels and compounds from trying to polish the musket exhaust on my Duramax. What a messy chore. Don’t envy someone doing it on a bench wheel - and it can be dangerous - if a razor sharp part catches and gets away from the operator...... Best idea I read is fixturing every part.

Subject: Re: 0000 Steel wool
When I refurbished my stainless I bought a cheap buffing wheel at Harbor Freight with a couple different buffing wheels & compounds. Don't remember the cost exactly but guessing somewhere in the $50 range. Did a nice job has to be faster than hand buffing with steel wool if you're doing a whole car.

Example on the rear gate trim in less than 30 seconds. I did switch to #000, seems to work quicker and still not leave any visible scratches.
I have a bid on straightening and polishing the 40 some pieces of stainless on the Dart, $1,700. Needless to say, 0000 and/or 000 steel wool and a couple evenings work and she is looking pretty good for now.
