I’ve been polishing metal for years now and your video is very informative and bang on for us DIYers.
I understand polished aluminium tarnishes and needs protection but polished steel can be cleaned after the buffing process with WD40. That stuff is a great cleaner and brings out a shine like you wouldn’t believe. I’ve also found polished steel never rusts as there are no nooks and crannies for moisture to settle in.
I’ve polished all my steel tools in the workshop over the years and never had a rust problem like I did every year after cold damp winters. Thanks for your video.🇦🇺👍
This channel has been so educational!
I was basically given two vintage bikes. They are both very beat up and rusted out. Hopefully I can restore them with some of the techniques learned here!
I wish I had discovered this channel earlier. I really want to get into rebuilding bikes and I've learnt so much from this channel. Thank you!
Truly best channel for learning and fun
Always amazing how you can make something old look better than new, keep showing us how to make things better bro!🙏🏻
Major props brother! I learned more from this than any other 5 tutorials and I don't own a dirt bike anymore. Been searching for an old Honda xr 100 4 stroke to restore. Definitely a sub worthy channel
Hey, nice video! FYI: A white pad is extra-fine, approximately equivalent to 600-grit sandpaper; gray compares to 220-grit; maroon, 150-grit; and green, 100-grit. The difference among them relates to the coarseness of grit that's impregnated in the plastic strands, not the thickness of those strands.
Yeah he got those grit comparisons really wrong. 120 is rough as hell
This is the best video I’ve seen on polishing. Great sequence & tips!
Just bought a bench buffer and I’m ordering pads ASAP. Thanks!!
Awesome video Cameron! Thank you soo much for putting this one out, I know myself will be referencing this throughout the winter/spring to get my CR125 lookin like a mirror!
First time watching, I found your video very informative. Good clear descriptions of each step as well as each product used.
And that finish looks really great!
So thanks for sharing. 😎😉
Been watching polishing videos for months and never saw this one. So glad I did. Saving me hours of hand sanding
Great demo. I just ordered the 8” cleaning pads and cannot wait to try them out. Thanks for showing how they work.
Polishing metal is more addictive than hash. Only real men and legends will understand this.

Unfortunately not true.... Tweekers also get addicted to polishing..seen one polish his stolen car for 3 days straight using tansmission fluid... Portland Oregon what can I say
Get the AAAA full melt next time
And isn't it ironic.. no matter how clean we get it and how mirror finish.. a REAL man will always say..
'I stil need to polish it some more'
😂😂💯
Great to see videos from you again! Hope all is well Cameron, have a super day!
Cam, this is the best metal polishing video I have found by a lot! Thank you so much for sharing it.
Great video. Been doing this since the early 70's with metric bikes. Your presentation is to the point, thanks for sharing your experience.
You're like an infomercial.....But wait, there's more!
Killing it with these tips and results! Thank you Cam!
Well done! I was familiar with most of the processes, but you were very through and filled in the details for me. Thanks!
Thanks for all the tips on polishing things up. Great tutorial on getting this done. I'm about to do some parts on my Vette.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge and the tips and options about the polishing and buying of the tools greatly appreciated!
Love watching a young man with talent and drive, I’m 52 years old and you inspired me to restore a bike and ride again this summer,, did it for years when I was younger,, keep up the good work ....
Well that was very inspirational to read!
Thank you for giving Cameron the credit and posting it for me to feel better!
OMG what a sweet look, always just what I was looking for, excellent work Cam.
I love your work man. You always do an awsome job at everything you work on and i think your videos are crystal clear for step by step instructions. Top work brother👍
Excellent presentation! I'm 67 and I have tried it all out there but you made it look so much easier with your method. I have ordered a bunch of your products, I'm in the middle of a 76 Yamaha RD400 high performance build. I do my own boring and I have a SuperFlow machine for port work, but that's easy compared to polishing parts. Thanks for sharing, much appreciated!
I appreciate the kind words Richard, happy to hear you found the video helpful! Your support of Pryme is greatly valued as well!
learned so much from your channel, thank you
Just got my set of pads. A godsend, incredible. It will take a little practice on when and how much to use the flap vs aggressive scratch pad but just the easiest aluminum polishing I've ever tried. I so wish inked these pads years ago when I made a 2x5 ft wrinkled copper waterfall fountain.
That was awesome. Thank you for putting this together!!
after polishing aluminum, you can protect it with 'Nufinish' the once a year car polish, it gives polished aluminum a liquid metal appearance which prevents oxidation so the finish will last a long time, I haven't tried it on other metals but I have used it on aluminum and it really does work!
Thanks dude im gonna try that
Very well produced video. Thanks for sharing
Awesome video, I have found this to be very helpful. Thank you for your polishing techniques and I will be purchasing your products to add to my toolkit. Keep up the excellent work
Great stuff Cameron. Top quality videos. Keep 'em comin'
Again, Cameron.... what another great job. And never let anyone tell you that you don't have patience! I was just bragging about your powder coated springs. Those turned out cool too.
Thank you so much man I’ve been needing to do this but didn’t know how
Beautifully done, great video. Clear and concise.
You inspired me to rebuild my motorbike. I learned a lot from you, thanks.
Now I really feel that I can get the result I want.
From the first to the last screw , I rebuild everything on it.
Which I would love to see you build a wiring harness because it requires a lot of preparation. I'm in this process right now.
I wish you health :)
Sweet results. Nice work man.
Recently I started another motorbike restoration, it's going to be a full nut and bolt job so I bit the bullet and got myself a decent 1.5 HP polisher, it cost a fair few quid but what a difference to the clapped out old polisher ive been using for the last 20+ years. I am really impressed with the various abrasive discs & flap wheels in this video, never seen those before & I already know I want them now I have this new machine !
I just clicked the link and saved the website ready to do a shopping list later, the only downside is the shipping, import duty & handling fees at my end so looks like I'm going to have to dig a bit deeper.
Great video you did here btw very well explained.
Exactly what I needed to see right now. Thank you
Outstanding and instructive video to get started in polishing!
Cameron, Well done buddy, I've been polishing self taught for the best part of twenty years and getting reasonable results, after watching your video it's answered all the questions I've been wandering about but not had the answers to, now I know and also picked up another supplier for finishing products, so big thank's for that. Also the video on plating, again, I have one of those kit's but not set it up yet as been too busy being ill, pleased to say I'm loads better and will get cracking with the plating now youv'e answered all the yestions. I have a Honda XL 500, XL 600 and also an old Peugeot ex French Army bike to do, so should get plenty of use.
Cameron to ask, have you tried to plate any large item's, one of the reasons I bought the Caswell kit is because I have a massive collection of vintage two gallon petrol cans which are 12 x 10 x 6 inch's I have a custic tank to strip them and also a Soda blaster to finish them off, I would really like see how one look's like plated, I was going to chrome powder coat one but you can't get them to hot as all the joint's are soldered and experience has proved that they can fall apart. I have 1,000 of these can's along with other vintage item's and of course the bike's.
Mate, that was a super cool video. Thanks for taking the time to make this.
Thanks for keeping these up for us 'late to the party' guys! Just found your channel and subscribed, too! You do good work as a teacher!
Cam! You should do a bike and make it a “CHROME” build do this to all the metal pieces it’s not my style but if the whole bike was done like that it would be super unique and would definitely draw a crowd.
With clear plastics
And yz125/250
Bronson Launder everything chrome handle bars triple clamps swing arm levers pegs. Man just thinking about it done like that I would need to be placed in an art museum!
That would be neat
Soo 2003 I like it 😂😂
Awesome video dude. Very informative and straight to the point. Thank you. Subscribed.
Man, gotta say, you do such a good job explaining steps and video work. Primo job man.
Hell yeah man, best video for this yet.
Entertaining, informational, and... safety. Hell yeah man. Nice vid. Thank you. :D
this was great! thank you for also including safety equipment
You're Great. I really like what you do. Well done Dude. 😉💪👋
Keep making videos like this.
You're very inspiring.
Crazy. Wish I had patience like this.
So very satisfying. It's like therapy
I would be happy doing this all day long. Thanks for this video!
This was a great video thanks for sharing and taking it thru all the steps!!
Finaly some stuff from Cameron👌 Thanks dude, amazing job💪
Amazing video dude!!
Simple green always amazing
That's incredible it looks amazing 👍
Perfect explanations. Thanks.
Keep it up cam!❤
For the clear coat, or really cleaning any metal you can also soak it in acetone. Simple Green works for cleaning in most cases; but for high carbon build or paint, toss it in a appropriate sized container and let the acetone do most of the work for you... of course if you have the means to own a wet blaster, just use that; but if you do sand blasting it's critical to clean the part as much as possible before blasting it. Otherwise you contaminate the blast media... great video.
Cameron, you are an excellent instructor👍🇬🇧
Way more cleaning than what I need for old toolboxes, but very informative. Thanks!
Looks super. I found that if you are restoring anodized items, drain cleaner works to remove the old finish well
Thanks Cameron, another good tutorial. Now I can really crack on with my restoration. (just the job for our lockdown over here).
Thanks for the heads up on that Powertec bench buffer! The Baldor's are so expensive. I'll be buying one of those for sure.
Very nice. I have several aluminum bike parts to polish up. Thanks for the tips.
Thanks Cam for the free shirt, love you pads.
“Briliant ! Literally. Best polishing video I’ve seen.
OK, I found the link. Please forgive my stupidity and disregard everything I said EXCEPT how great these videos are. They are OUTSTANDING. Thanks, John
Love this vid . Can't wait for the next vid . Keep it up .
U can take bakin soda or muratic acid an do the same ting instead all this krap
Excellent tips. Thank you
Great Job man! You have the talent to rebuild....
Very useful. Thanks mate👍👍👍
Another great video thank you so much for all the information I too buff and polished some parts on my 04 crf450 dirt bike. I also did my swing arm which came out pretty good I used sandpaper and the mother's polish but your methods and tools you use are way better than mine so I will be looking at the links to get all those parts together keep up the good work you're an inspiration and a pillar in the Motorsport can't wait to see what you have for in store for us next
One word, Satisfying!
Think I'm going to buy some wheels for my Baldor, put on some tunes, and go polish some boat parts.
Thanks for putting this together, great video
Great job, and thanks for the education!
Nice work mate, very nice
HOLY CRAP DUDE!! This turned out mint. Definitely the best polishing video I have seen. Props to you. I love your work
Thanks for checking it out! Glad you enjoyed it!
You're a legend dude.. if I lived in the US I'd buy your stuff just to support you
Thanks a lot. Great channel bro .
You are very motivational! Keep it up 👍🏻
very nicely done, and very helpful advice, subbed.
I been waiting on these kinda videos these are my favorite how to do stuff i learn a lot off them to
😋😋😜😜☝️☝️☝️🤗🤗🤗
Seth Clarke yes it can. However in order to keep it from Eventually metal pumpkins. You’ll need to clear coat it for long turn shine
Feel free to check out our polishing page on Facebook at Tri State Wheel Polishing.
God Bless!
Great advice 🤟 love your channel
Wow...excellent video! I'm inspired!
Once Again.... Great video my man!
Cameron, this is a GREAT video. I´ve always liked my vehicles parts to shine. But...it would have been a huge impact to see a photo of the part installed before, and one AFTER. i´d love to have seen that.
Hey man, that's better than new. I don't surprise. You are a pro.
Great video - thank you for posting... I am going to go try it right now!
Nice work!
Great video, thanks!! Subscribed 🙌🏻
Very good demonstration
Awesome tips man
I'm refurbing some antique tools, but I don't have bench grinders. I invested in an electric Makita 1/4" chuck straight-mini die grinder. After seeing your air grinder with those mini flapper sanding/scotch-brite wheels, I need to get some. Great work!
Your videos is great! I'm addicted to your channel. Would be real interesting to see you fix up parts without all your professional tools and equipment. Maybe even without taking the bike apart but still end up with a extra ordinary result. I'm sure you can!
Just throwing this out there: sometimes using machines is not always a good idea. Generally I would wash the part. Then I would file down the casting marks. For the flat areas, I glue sand paper to small wooden blocks. I would start with 600 (wet, water and dish soap) and see if it removes the deepest scratches. I then work my way to 2000 grit and then finally the buffer. Something to keep in mind is, all aluminum oxidizes and it happens way faster than you might think. For example, you could be sanding on a part and come back to it in 3 hours, and you’ll have to resand back through the oxidation. You can tell when you get through, the sandpaper will feel like it’s dragging (cutting) more. And when you get your final finish, don’t put anything on it other than wax. If you spray clear coat, the aluminum will oxidate and the clear turns an ugly kind of yellow.
You can buy clearcoat with UV protection
Ceramic coating 😊
Awesome video mate... thanks
Nice vid! Thank You!
Great video! Thanks!
Great video very informative!
