G'day Group,
I'm experimenting with polishing. No doubt I will eventually give in and paint, but so far I have been flying two years without the paint so I figure now is the time to give it a try.
I have a supply of Nuvite F7, C and S grade polishes. I have been compounding with a rotary polisher.
Over here in Australia it is a bit hard to get hold of a Cyclo polisher as the US units are all 110V and we run 220V. Also, I am not sure if it is worth the expense as a trial run.
My question is has anyone had good results using a random orbital sander/polisher or some other machine that is commonly available? I'd be interested in any tips.
I'm not necessarily looking for a show finish. Anything is better than a plane that has been flying two years without paint or polish!
Cheers
