Re: [A/S] Re: Shiney '89
Polishing is an emerging technology. People who have used both say that
Nuvite is much easier to use than Rolite. The Napier stripper is the way to
go to remove the clearcoat if you have it. I've used it and it works great
and is non toxic and environmentally friendly. You don't really need rubber
gloves but it's a good idea anyway. I'd be surprised if you can find a new
metal housing Cyclo polisher for less than $225 but I know of a source at
that price if anyone is interested. The cheaper plastic knock off polishers
don't hold up according to reports from users. The $100/ft of trailer length
commercial price is measured from the back bumper to the hitch coupler and
does not include up charges from removing awnings, etc. and other prep work
before the polishing can be done.
A good starting place for recent information and links to polishing sites is
www.perfectpolish.com and www.vintageairstream.com.
Hope it helps.
