Polish techniques for Provari

[ibm390s]

Hello,

a few days ago i received my provari 2.5 satin finish and since then my wife is looking to it telling me that i should replace her ET with something like mine. I was thinking to buy a provari mini satin and polish it for her. Can somebody advice me about tools/materials used to obtain a mirror finish on a provari mini?

Thanks in advance.

L.E is there a way to polish it without removing the electronics and loose the warranty. Is polishing affect the warranty?

I have a nice dremel at home made by proxxon which can be fitted with various polishing heads. Am i able to use that on the provari or i will ruin it? I also have some polish paste from proxxon. Did someone use such tools to polish a provari?

I haven't tried it on a ProVari (I like mine satin) but I use Fitz metal polish and a cloth to buff my wedding ring all the time. It takes off minor scratches and looks new. You can tape off the window and button and polish by hand instead of trying to use power tools that can mess something up really quick.

I will keep this in mind. Testing first manually on a small surface.

I totally read this as "Polish" as in, from Poland!

the ceramic finish is not easy to remove.
i use a sand blaster.
it takes me close to 3 hours to polish one the right way.
and i have a nice buffer and the right wheels and compound.

I hope that with satin finish things will be easier. Hope to find some time in the weekend for this job.

if you don't have the right equipment.
i think you may be disappointed.

if you have an extended battery cap.
try on that first.

I had my provari acid washed when I custom powder coated it, but that required me to removed the electronics.
