          Hey,

          Great job!!! WOW!!!!! I have polished a fair amount of aluminum in the past. So I can really appreciate your hard work!!!

          Oh...by the way...how much of the black residue do you have all over your hands, face, clothes etc... ? Like I said, been there, done that!!

                Great job but that's not your compressor. receiver dryer/accumulator are a couple of better references for that part. The compressor is the component that has a belt driving it.

                      Great job! Did you put some NXT Metal Polysh on it?


                      Did you know that Tim did an entire boat like that?
