I did it on my accumulator pipes.
Best to use wet n dry to get it as smooth as poss first.

wet and dry till totaly smooth then start working down the grades of waxes with the appropriate mops takes a long time remember to use lime powder also to clean waxes of between stages

i did my rocker covers on skyline and took almost a week to get perfect

Dont forget a light coat of lacquer if polishing steel.

started with brown then went to blue for the last stage

How long did you do it for? it can take ages
