Met a guy yesterday, and after alot of talking we worked out s deal for a set up almost exactly like this!

HOLY CRAPIOCA, buffing is hard work!! This crap takes forever!
Took me 4-5 hours to get one valve cover done, and it still needs a few more fine cut buffs, with the Tripoli ruge to really shine, but good Lord, my arms are whooped!!!! LOL!
My much better half thinks I'm crazy, but it's a labor of love!!
Probably wouldn't be as hard if the covers weren't so ruff from the sand cast!
Anyhow... here's a couple pix....
Back to the garage now.....

Well, got both valve covers polished! Bought a new air angle polisher and coarse, medium, and fine scotch pads- DEFFINATELY made the job easier!!! I may do the tops again, to erase any little pits/ scratches left, but the shine is there, now! Big improvement!
