    "It's cheaper to replace to box than it is for me to use my time." I cannot tell you how much that statement helped me. I had to play this back to remind myself today. Thank you for all the education my friend. Keep up the good work!

    I found a method on rough diamond plate that works decently. Wool pad with zephyr pro40. Of course the damaged bits arent gonna be the greatest but trust me. It helps alot.

      Wool pads always help on diamond plate no matter what hand polish you use. Great comment.

    Hey Evan, great channel and work! I'm a Merchant Mariner. Our Engine Room is outfitted with Alluminum Diamond Plate decks. The crew wants to polish out our deck, nothing crazy for show. Can you recommend a set up for us? Polisher, Wheels.& Polish?

    What style buffer pad is this? I'm a Maritime Captain and our diamond deck plates are in serious need of TLC. We have wool polishing bonnets but they don't seem tough enough for the job we have ahead.

    • @EvanStegerMetalPolishing
      @EvanStegerMetalPolishing  6 месяцев назад

      We use airway pads from goshineon.com. If your diamond plate is really rough start with the red buff and brown rouge. Then hit it with your wool bonnet with some time2shine aluminum polish. Then hit it with the orange buff and brown rouge. Then your wool bonnet and t2s aluminum polish again. Repeat the heavy steps as many times as necessary. Then switch to a white buff with green rouge to finish it up when it has a great shine.

      You have to have your buffer wheel turning downward at the bottom. If not, it will hang on the edge

    Great job! Even better was the quick and easy polishing. Waste no time.
    My work van has heavy oxidized aluminum wheels about 9 yrs old. Was contemplating replacing with new aluminum wheels. Much easier to replace however it will cost about 1k to replace. Will this method work on aluminum wheels!
