Polishing a Gorillamaxx Chassis?
Anyone know how to polish a G-Maxx chassis? Is it clear andonized? Does it polish up nicely?
|
It should polish nicely.
|
What would you use to polish it? Is it anodized?
|
Go to an auto parts store and get some aluminum mag wheel polish. That chassis doesnt look to me like its got anything other than a nice machined finish on it. You can use a soft rag to polish it, or you can try a buffing wheel on a dremel, but be careful - you might get dirty!
|
Polishing is always a mess. And no, the gmaxx is not anondized unless you get the colored versions. But it will polish VERY NICELY!
|
Mothers polish works fine with me.
|
I find the g-maxx parts rather hard to polish.
|
Get a buffing wheel and some compound made for buffing. I got some home made polishing stuff. It works better , faster and easier than any thing I have used before. I find that if it is to rough sand it with some light sand paper first. The buffing comes out much nicer. Can even get the chrome look.

I tried polishing it - I couldn't get it to a chrome finish, but it was shinier.... Is it possible to chrome it out?
|
Probably if you do it several times.
|
It'll take some time, and you'll need some speed on that buffer wheel, but it is possible....it will also depend on the compound you are using.
|
I use mothers for the first application, then i use neverdull.....to shine mine up...comes out pretty good.
|
i dont really care about if its polished or not, unless is gets dirty then ill just clean her up with wd 40 but other then that dont polish
