I have hundreds of dollars in professional polishing equipment. It is indeed polished! I used a power buffer (looks like a benchtop grinder w/4"-6"-8" sewn cloth buffing wheel), multiple grades of polishing compounds, multiple sizes and grades of buffing wheels, as well as varoius types of sandpaper, emery cloth, scotchbrite, files, and a couple types of final polishing compound.

Polishing is as much of an art as it is a science. Parts can be clearcoated to preserve the finish and to make it "low-maintenance" but that requires a special type of clear coat designed specifically for application to raw polished metals. I have the clearcoat on hand.

If anyone wants a polished brushless motor (must be smooth can, not finned) I'll do it for you. You cover shipping and a few bucks for materials. I cover the labor as a special favor to RC-Monster forum members. It looks like NEU's, Feigao/Blue Nemesis, and Mamba maxx can be pretty easily done.

If disassembly is required before polishing, it will be up to you to do that. I won't be responsible for dissassembling/reassembling your motors unless I charge a fee.
