Question for AZ: Need a polish guy

I have a transmission for my 68 chevy pickup and would like the entire thing polished. Does anyone in AZ have a good and inexpensive guy for this?

Thanks
Dan

Not sure if you are after a high-lustre polish or not but I would just go after it with a wire wheel... You can get a pretty "satin" nice finish from it.

Re: Question for AZ: Need a polish guy

Do you have the time to do it yourself? Time, sandpaper,dremel, polishing wheel and a strong arm. Start with 180 and work your way up to 1500 grit. Then polish with a wheel or a power ball. Use the dremel for the tight hard to reach places. Either way, post pics when done.
