Aluminum polishing business start up
I am in desperate need of knowing what type of machine I should buy to start an aluminum polishing business? I see ads on the internet where they make aluminum look like chrome. The machine( if available) would have to be able to do 15-16" wheels, manifolds, intakes, etc. PLEASE ADVISE! ANYONE?

Hi, Guy. The secret is not in secret software in the machine, the secret is in learning how to mirror polish aluminum, and you can do that without spending more than a couple hundred dollars. Start with letter 800 and our search engine, and then practice until you know how to mirror polish aluminum. Once you know how and all the little variables involved, you'll be able to shop for more highly automated equipment if you wish. Good luck.
