Add 5k and 10k grit to your list...its much better after using those as well. Great video!

I did this process when I ported and polished my throttle body on my Mustang. Came out like chrome...great video as always buddy!

thank you for the description with the item links! Been wanting to get into diecast customs but was lost and overwhelmed by how I might mess up or even know what to do. You make this seem doable for someone like me. The step by step and in depth explanation with tips really just shows how much tou are going above and beyond for this and really seem to want to help! I know this is long winded, but again. Thank you, this hobby has gotten me through tough times by allowing m to collect my favorite cars, built my childhood with hotwheels of all kinds, and has recently allowed me to find a small group of friends that like diecasts too! I only have one suggestion that my dad taught me as a "family secret to touch ups" (he built things alot); maybe to fix some imperfections or straight up cuts, grooves, or divits, you can use a sort of wax/enamel or soft acrylic (the kind that you can make that molds alot like clay but easier to cut) to make a very fine layer by getting it soft enough to get a flat surface (razor blade at an angle like you are doing a reverse scrape) to allow it to fill the gap. Then, as I've seen people do for other things, spray silver over it as a post-primer coat. (Primer not always needed as for some things like irl aluminium car mirrors on older cars only need a thin clear coat and silver) i hope I don't sound rude trying to teach a pro, but I'm just really exited about the discovery of this channel and want to share some other tricks that might work too! Anyways, bye and thanks! (Again, sorry this is long)

I've done this using Turtle Wax polishing compound and a dremel tool with polishing bit. Came out absolutely beautiful. ❤👍👍🤘🤘

Soon as summer huts I'm tearing into an old mustang of mine, resto Rod comes to my mind...

Well done brother, if you can get ahold of some flitz Polish give it a try it works awesomely. I have been through quite a few different polishes and compounds and the flitz seems to be the best for me. Very cool and informational video brother.

Suhweeettt video buddy definitely something I want to try when I get into making customs 😁👍🏼👊🏼

Well done man. Been looking at very clean polished and I just seem to be impatient. Definitely helps for sure. Sandpaper sandpaper sandpaper💪🏼

Looking good! Nothing like seeing the finished product after the work put in! 👍👊😃

Thank you very much for all the info and tips I'm going to try metalcast paint. And this gives me a good starting point.

Great how to video. I can't wait to see the finished product!

Man... this is the second video of yours to really help me out. I tried this yesterday on a civic EF.... got some metalcast red paint, and I'm very pleased with the results! I hand polished instead of using a dremel just to see how it would look and it looked pretty good. But next time I'll use the dremel for sure! Thanks bro!

Very nice! I getting into polishing different casting also. Can't wait to do my first chrome polish.

Now the new buffing wheel u will be done in no time and u can charge less !! Lol!!!! Thanks for sharing

Thanks so much for this tutorial, i used it to get a feel for metal polishing on a gundam model!

thanks for the info.................................

Awesome can’t wait for the paint video. Thank you for the tips and sorry for that newbie question got to excited commented before watching the video!

Going to have to give this a try

Great video, the stuff I sent you are on pretty bad cards, so hopefully you got plans for them in the detail shop. Not all but some. Castings are fine just some of the cards have seen better day's. See you next time, thanks.

Wow

this works so good

That is so impressive. 😎

Nicely done!

Great video my friend and very usefull !👍👏👏👏🥇🏆

What's up amigo very nice video master #hunters 😎👊💪👌☝️

tks a lot..

Looks great man!

You can also electroplate the casting with zinc to fill in imperfections, etc. before sanding and polishing. That's what I do.

Noice love that shine. Thanks for the great video 🤙🏽

Great Video! You think it’d be okay to sand to 2000 grit and then never dull the cars?? I’m assuming the degreaser will take all the left over residue off??

How can I clean the chrome diecast parts on my Voltron ?? They have some tough stains that wont come of with warm water and soft cloth.

Great video very helpful😁😎

BADASS

Very Nice 👌

Don't know if this video is too old to answer my question, but could I replace the buffer and polish compound with 5000 grit sandpaper? I have the supplies, but like to brag about hand sanding to a mirror finish.😉😁

Hi I've found two supers and a treasure ever since your video about what they are! Thanks for that. I was going to ask if you could help me build my collection? Like if you would make another video. I've been hunting since 2019 and I've only found three. It is fun getting them so thanks for all the vids I look up to you! Have a great day! Hope you see this.

Can 18v work for a rotary tool

GIVEAWAY!!!!

CUSTOM SERIES IS BACK!!!

Hey how many uses do you get with the polishing pads? Can they be washed and re-used?

Do I need a rotary tool to get that mirror like finish? I tried using just my elbow grease and can't seem to get the same effect? I'm wondering if I didn't sand it properly or it's really the rotary tool that would make the difference. Thanks in advance.

Can i only use polishing compound without rubbing compound? Because its hard to find the brand tha you use

How do you take the bottom of the hot wheels

Where did you find the red container you using in the video

Zamac contept

second ! :)

will it mess up paint

First

Hmmmm, skip those sandpaper works. Rotary drill+ finest steel whool. Faster the process and cheaper th steel whool.

Third

I’m more interested in polishing a “painted” car.
