Topic: To polish or not to polish, that is the question?

[LOMILETA]

Well, I picked up my motor this weekend. With it came a set of aluminum valve covers ( just a raw cast ). I spent about 25 minutes this AM ( without the correct supplies) polishing this spot. I think they arent too bad, and will be alot nicer when done. What are your opinions? Would you do it if it were you?

Polished always looks nice (for a short time after all that work).  I have started using black valve covers lately, as I am not one to sit and clean a motor since they never seem to stay clean.  I like to drive the car, not spend all my time cleaning it.

That's cool...are you gonna' airbrush your face on the other one, too?

 No they sell those stickers at uglymug.com.
Once they are done, I will only have to clean them once a year.

I would keep cleaning them, all that hard work will be worth it in the end

Polish em dude.......But you gotta do more work.  There is something nasty in that one that aint polished out yet.
