got1banshee Posted March 23, 2004 Report Share Posted March 23, 2004 I have a stator/case side cover that has been bead blasted and now I want to polish it. Is there anyone here that can do it for me at a resonable price?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigboybanshee Posted March 23, 2004 Report Share Posted March 23, 2004 You might wanna send Cotton Eyed Joe a PM, he might be able to do it for you. He is as honest as it gets and does an excellent job on all his work. He mainly makes billet parts but I know he CAN polish...shoot him a PM, he just might be interested...

banshee04le Posted March 23, 2004 Report Share Posted March 23, 2004 You might try to pm indubitably (sp?). I heard he can polish a clutch cover like nobodys business. OK, or Stan . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cotton eyed Joe Posted March 23, 2004 Report Share Posted March 23, 2004 Thanks for the shout out Travis. Right now I can't due to the lack of proper tooling. I did mine all by hand, and my fingers nearly fell off. The hardest part is prepping and sanding. I was able to work on mine while my lathe was running, and it took me the better part of a week to get it to where I could polish it. It isn't where I want it to be right now either. There's a few spots I simply couldn't sand, or even polish. I'm super pickey about this stuff incase you couldn't tell. I plan on it in the future however. I just need to make a list and go shopping.
