anyone done this? i was going to try and do it myself. my main concern is oxidation. will this occur? is there a way to prevent it? (i'm talking about the outside, wanna make it shinny) thanks

 

I have a crawford plenum which I already stripped off the black paint from. I was thinking polisihing the outside of my plenum also & then clearcoating it, but I think I'm gonna end up powdercoating it instead. I wouldn't worry too much about oxidation. Unless it's made from iron or steel, you won't have to worry about rust or anything like that.

 

I've see folks a few posts about guys doing it, but also saying it takes a lot of time and that they wouldn't recommend doing it yourself (just not worth the time/effort). they said your better off just buying a polished one or taking it to a machine shop.

 

PM me if youre interested in one..

 

yea, well i was going to port and polish the lower plenum, (like in the other thrend) and figured i'd also try and do that.

ClaytonC01: do u just take a stock plenum and polish it or is a different one?

 

a very long process.

 

stock plenum.. if youre interested, im working on one right now

 

do u only do the outside, or inside too? will it oxidize?

 

it wont oxidize... and just the outside

 

and y won't it oxidize?

 

I do show quality polishing if you are still interested.
