Hey Kevin. Followed you over. I only do my own stuff. I'm no pro. As I run out of gear, I'm starting to explore renegade. I'm really enjoying exploring different products. Safe travels!!!

Hey Kevin! I’m so happy i found this video! I found a tossed electroplated brass side table. The top was corroded thick with rust. I managed to remove all the rust with a vinegar mix. I didnt need to scrub but now there are marks where the rust was and obviously any brass electroplating there was has been eaten away. It need to sand and buff to high shine. Is that possible?? Which i could add 2-3 pics to show you. How would ai do that? Thx!☺

Kevin have you done fuel wheels

[@isrealperez9069]

Your demonstration is pretty nice but what about certain areas that it cannot touch or is it made for flat surfaces only

[@RenegadeProductsUSA]

@@isrealperez9069 we’ve got plenty of that on our videos as well. Please take a look at our other clips

Man do I have questions. I have never done any kind of polishing before, I am trying to buff some old, in bad shape, aluminum diamond plate boxes. After watching a bunch of videos, I bought an orange buff and a yellow buff, also a brown bar and a green bar, all from Maverick. I have a Milwaukie grinder, but I had no idea it was a 6k rpm and I am running it wide open. After watching this vid, I am running it to fast, especially for the yellow. How often do you add the bar? How much do you add? How much pressure do you put on the wheel? These boxes are only 16g, they get warm pretty quick. It seems that there is a lot of black residue on the back side of the diamonds, I think im using to much bar. Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks

@@getreel3515 if you’re a beginner then you should get a 3500 variable speed grinder. There is no quick learn to Polishing… it’s all about experience and technique. If you’re unhappy with your finished and get yourself a scrap piece of aluminum and practice on it until you get to where you want to be

[@RenegadeProductsUSA]

@@getreel3515 as a beginner you should be using a variable speed DeWalt grinder or something like that. Use the orange buff at 3500, then the yellow buff at about 3000 as the secondary step. You’re not going to get a good finish at 6000 RPM especially if you’re beginner

So I’m trying to polish an aluminum tanker but I only have a polish pad and polish paste but it’s cloudy do I have to sand the whole thing or will buying a buffer wheel fix that?

[@RenegadeProductsUSA]

@@croocrew2872 if you’re looking for a true mirror finish then you will need to sand to 800 grit before you polish

[@croocrew2872]

@@RenegadeProductsUSA is that with a pad and paste polish or with an airway wheel and compound

@@croocrew2872 you can choose either method. The buffing wheels will give you a faster and brighter finish

[@RenegadeProductsUSA]

@@croocrew2872 you do not need to sand to 5000 grit. the highest grit you will possibly need is 800 before you start Polishing

What did you use to clean the sanding paper?

@@yoomama2331 it’s called a sanding eraser. It’s what it sounds like: a big eraser specifically for removing metal buildup on a disk for belt

I purchased your pontoon polish package. With Savage 180,320,400,600,800 grit sand discs. After the final step I noticed a lot of half moons/ swirl marks. I started with a dewalt 3500 rpm variable polisher with 180 and went up to 400 with it. Then used 600 and 800 with a Da. What do you recommend I go or change to avoid having swirl marks on the other pontoon?

[@RenegadeProductsUSA]

You likely should have gone to the DA at 400 grit or lower

Why not using the water while sanding?

[@TheRoadhammer379]

Clogs up the sandpaper and makes the paper tear easier. You can clean dry sandpaper with a wooden paint stir stick when sanding aluminum, but only when dry
